Ronaldo has moved to the Saudi Pro League with Al Nassr, and Messi joined Inter Miami last summer.<\/p>\n<p>Forbes states that Ronaldo\u2019s three-year contract at Al Nassr is worth over \u20ac200 million (\u00a3172 million).<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Marca, a Spanish publication, reports that Messi earns about \u00a343 million per year in Miami. This makes Messi the highest-paid player in the MLS, earning more than Xherdan Shaqiri of the Chicago Fire, who makes \u00a36.5 million per year.<\/p>\n<p>Messi and Ronaldo have worked hard over the decades to reach a level where they can earn such high salaries.<\/p>\n<p>However, when they first started, both players earned much less.<\/p>\n<p>El Futbolero reports that Messi earned just \u20ac600 (\u00a3516) a month as a youth player at Barcelona, which is just over \u00a36000 per year.<\/p>\n<p>But when Messi signed his first professional contract with Barcelona, his salary jumped to \u20ac3 million a year (\u00a32.6 million).<\/p>\n<p>The same publication also mentioned that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bolnews.com\/sports\/2024\/01\/jadon-sancho-reveals-what-he-learned-from-cristiano-ronaldo-at-manchester-united\/\">Ronaldo<\/a> was earning \u20ac1 million (\u00a3860,000) per year when he signed his first professional contract with Sporting.<\/p>\n<p>When Ronaldo transferred to Manchester United in 2003, his salary more than doubled to \u00a335,000 per week, which is equivalent to \u00a31.82 million per year, according to Dispensable Soccer.<\/p>\n<p>Since then, both players have seen a steady increase in their earnings. Forbes reports that Ronaldo\u2019s net worth is $136 million (\u00a3107 million) and Messi\u2019s is $130 million (\u00a3102 million).<\/p>\n<p>Messi and Ronaldo are scheduled to play against each other on February 1 in Riyadh, which could be their last match against each other.<\/p>\n<div class=\"alsoread\">\n<h4 class=\"text-uppercase mb-10 mt-20 fs-18\">Also Read<\/h4>\n<div class=\"post-box sty22\">\n<div class=\"post-frame js-ratioHtP\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bolnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/FotoJet-2024-01-16T155504.307-254x144.jpg\" alt=\"Lionel Messi named FIFA men\u2019s player of the year once again\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<h5 class=\"title\">Lionel Messi named FIFA men\u2019s player of the year once again<\/h5>\n<p>Messi wins FIFA men&#8217;s player of the year.
