Description: £120.5m A huge jump in earnings takes us to number two and Lionel Messi. The Argentinian fronts the FIFA video games, Samsung's Galaxy 11 and also Gatorade, as well as appearing as the face of Gillette. Messi is a man in demand and when you're considered to be the best footballer in the world, it is no surprise that you are paid like one. The Barcelona forward signed a new £16.4m a year deal earlier in 2014, but as yet it remains to be seen where his future lies. Wherever he goes, however, expensive cars, houses and bag loads of money will be sure to follow. |
