‘Obsessed’ Cristiano Ronaldo tipped to be as successful as David Beckham in retirement after building vast business empire & launching record-breaking YouTube channel

<p>Ronaldo's entrepreneurial journey began well before he started considering life after football. The Portuguese star boasts a diversified portfolio, ranging from hospitality to fashion. His hotel chain, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/cristiano-ronaldo-to-open-cr7-hotel-in-paris/aivmxl4ahamf1l5p9hm7eb9cs" target="_blank">Pestana CR7,</a> has been widely praised, while his CR7 clothing and lifestyle brand, which includes a hair transplant clinic, has established him as a fashion mogul. In addition to these ventures, Ronaldo has delved into the<a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/what-will-cristiano-ronaldo-do-when-he-retires/10rc1rz38smcd18aetazzo83dn" target="_blank"> fitness industry, launching several gyms under his brand. </a> </p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Much like Ronaldo, Beckham transitioned seamlessly from a footballer to a business magnate after hanging up his boots. The former England captain owns Major League Soccer club Inter Miami and holds a stake in Salford City, showcasing his commitment to the sport. His business ventures in football ownership and branding have inspired Ronaldo to consider similar paths and the Portuguese recently revealed his openness to <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/contract-extension-cristiano-ronaldo-40-al-nassr-superstar-prolong-62-goal-stint-saudi-arabia/blt9b5fe85776a669ee" target="_blank">owning a football club as well.</a></p><p>"I don't rule out becoming a club owner," Ronaldo, 39, told reporters during an event in Madrid. Whereas, in another instance, he spoke about his aspirations to expand his business.</p><p>"I (will) work on my business and I might be a little lost [after retiring], but I have other things to worry about which is a business part, a new chapter that I'm excited for which will also be a challenge for me," the Portugal captain added. </p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Former Manchester United teammate Saha, in a chat with <em>BoyleSports</em> who offer the latest<a href="https://www.boylesports.com/sports/football/competition/england-premier-league" target="_blank">&nbsp;Premier League odds</a>, expressed his belief in Ronaldo’s potential to replicate Beckham’s success and said: "I think Cristiano Ronaldo will be as successful as David Beckham in retirement, he is obsessed with football but also being successful in business and you can see that in all the ventures he has. He can transform nutrition and I think everything that he decides to do will be a success because he is a huge attraction, his social media says it all." </p>

WHAT LOUIS SAHA SAID

<p>Ronaldo’s financial strength positions him well for future ventures. According to <a href="https://www.forbes.com/profile/cristiano-ronaldo/#:~:text=As%20of%20March%202024%2C%20he%20had%20903%20million." target="_blank"><em>Forbes</em></a>, his current net worth, derived from footballing income and endorsements with brands like Nike, Unilever, and Binance, stands at £200 million ($260 million). When factoring in his business ventures, his estimated net worth rises to between £424 million and £500 million. This immense wealth, combined with his entrepreneurial drive, ensures that Ronaldo will remain a dominant figure even after hanging up his boots. </p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Before turning his full attention to business and other ventures, Ronaldo continues to focus on breaking records on the pitch. The 39-year-old will return to action on Friday as Portugal faces Poland in the Nations League and the five-time Ballon d'Or winner will look to find the net again with his sights set firmly on the elusive milestone of scoring 1,000 career goals. </p>
