David Beckham – $6.5 million per year
A-list football player David Beckham is one of the best, most iconic players in the history of the sport. In 2008, he was inducted into the English Football Hall of Fame and has received many accolades during his career. Before retiring in 2013, Beckham had a guaranteed compensation of $6.5 million per year from the Los Angeles Galaxy, making him the highest-paid player in the league.
Now at 45, the footballer has a huge net worth of $450 million that covers his career savings, major investments in Miami CF and Salford City, as well as other enterprises he is involved in. Together with his wife, the equally successful fashion icon Victoria Beckham, the power couple has entered the billionaire’s club from their collective businesses and own several homes in the United States and in England. They have come a long way together indeed.
