Cristiano Ronaldo has becomes football’s first-ever billionaire ahead of Lionel Messi – with his Barcelona rival to follow suit next year.
The Juventus star, 35, has become only the THIRD sports star to reach the milestone, joining Tiger Woods and Floyd Mayweather Jr, according to Forbes
Ronaldo raked in £85million in the last year from his wages and endorsement deals, pushing him into the billions for career earnings.

Former Manchester United and Real Madrid star Ronaldo has pocketed over £500m during his career from wages alone.
