UK outlet SunSport had in 2020 reported that Ronaldo became the world’s first-ever billionaire and no doubt he could afford such an exotic piece.

The 36-year-old, who was named the highest-paid footballer on the planet, according to Forbes, was also the highest-earning athlete in lockdown after making nearly £1.9 million through Instagram alone.

Ronaldo raked in $105 million overall for 2020, which included $45 million from Nike, Altice, Herbalife and his own CR7 brand, and made $1 million more than long-time rival Messi.

In May 2021, the Juventus star was spotted wearing a dazzling yellow diamond engagement ring.

The 36-year-old was a panellist at the Dubai International Sports Conference and he was seen wearing accessories valued at around N333 million at the event.

SunSport costs the engagement ring encircled by a halo of white diamonds at N106 million (£200,000) and he also wore a set of a diamond-encrusted band which has been valued at N26m (£50,000).
