Cristiano Ronaldo paid three times more than any other player in Serie A - report

According to a report in Tuttosport, the Portuguese star is paid more than three times the amount of any other player in Serie A.

Since arriving in Turin for £88 million from Real Madrid over the summer, the forward has yet to find the back of the net.

He has, though, pocketed an unbelievable amount of money already as part of a €31 million (£28m) per season four-year deal.

The five-time Ballon d'Or and Champions League winner reportedly earns a staggering three times more than the second-highest paid player in the league, Gonzalo Higuain.

The Argentine striker takes home €9.5 million (£9m) per season for his Milan duties - but that amount pales in comparison to Ronaldo's earnings. And if you remove Higuain from the running, Ronaldo earns over four times the next highest paid player, team-mate Paulo Dybala (€7m).

Eye-watering.
