The world’s most popular sport is soccer (or football outside the United States). Despite growing popularity in the U.S. for decades, it has consistently been the dominant sport in Europe, South America, and Africa for decades. Around 600 million people watch the World Cup final each year. Teams from more than 200 countries participate in qualifying. The importance of soccer worldwide, its influence, and its superstar players is hard for most Americans to comprehend.

A lot of money is made by top soccer players, as you might imagine.

Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are the world’s two highest-paid players.  In addition to being the most popular athlete in the world, Ronaldo is the biggest star in soccer. He has more than 600 million followers on social media. Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter all have 344 followers for him. The endorsements Ronaldo gets from Manchester United are almost as much as his salary from the club. Roger Federer, LeBron James, and Tiger Woods are the only athletes who earn more money through endorsements than Ronaldo.

In total, five hundred and eighty-five million dollars were earned by the ten highest-paid soccer players. This is an increase from last year’s $570 million. Outside of the U.S., soccer players earn ten times more than their American counterparts.
