Faiq Bolkiah, the 24 years old nephew of the Sultan of Brunei is reportedly the richest footballer with a net worth of £13bn, making Ronaldo’s wealth a drop in the ocean compared to Bolkiah’s.

The royal bloodline sportsman has had spells at Premier League clubs Southampton, Chelsea and Leicester under his belt.

He currently plays as a midfielder for the Thai club Chonburi.
