In 2025, footballer’s wages are a hot topic thanks to the increasingly astronomical salaries that they command.
Such high wages are well-documented and are showing few signs of slowing down.
In January, Cristiano Ronaldo penned an extension with Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr, which will see him earn around £167.9million in a year – or £300 per minute, £5 a second.
Meanwhile, Erling Haaland’s new deal with Manchester City, confirmed just days after Ronaldo’s, sees him pocket a figure not far off £1m per week for nine-and-a-half years.
So, who is the richest football wife or girlfriend out of a collection of superstars from across the globe and how much are they worth?
Read on below as Mail Sport takes a look at the ladies with the chunkiest purses.
