Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar
Cristiano Ronaldo is living a positive moment at the Saudi Pro League. The Portuguese has had great performances with the Riyadh team so far and it has been reflected on the pitch. The team led by Luis Castro has had a good series of matches. Despite not having the best light start, the team recovered by getting their qualification to the AFC Champions League, a game where they came from behind to qualify with players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Sadio Mane, Brozovic and company.
Definitely, the Portuguese continues to accumulate merits to remain in the spotlight and the fans who day by day continue to admire the Portuguese.On the other hand, The Bug during his stay in Saudi Arabia already accumulates other types of records. For example, he recently became the player with the most goals in history with 844 goals. Similarly, the 7 of Al Nassr is the top scorer in the history of the Champions League and also the only player from Portugal who has qualified for six consecutive European Championships.
It should be noted that Cristiano Ronaldo can be considered as a record man. In the same way, these records are not only reflected on the pitch but outside it as well. According to various media such as Depor, the commander earns approximately $210 million a year in Saudi Arabia, which is a true record. Meanwhile, other players make a profit not only from their soccer salaries and in the case of Neymar this is no exception.
Neymar’s salary out of soccer at Al Hilal
According to Bloomberg, the 32-year-old Brazilian will earn approximately 500,000 euros for each publication on Instagram he makes mentioning Saudi Arabia. Undoubtedly, this leaves much to talk about because this type of economic income rather than to promote soccer serve to promote the country. The criticism of Saudi soccer has not ceased. However, both Neymar and Ronaldo have constantly defended their signings to the Saudi Pro League while for other players it is becoming a more attractive destination.
