Seen summat a while back,it was saying on average,clubs get 7.5% of shirt sales.
Some of the bigger clubs get a bit more....so based on 7.5%,if Ronaldo sold 300k shirts at say £90 each,that would be £27m and 7.5% would mean he made them just over £2m.
It's probably slightly more,but it ain't paying for no transfer.
They will pay him 10 times more in wages than he'll ever make in shirt sales.
Also, my raggy mate went to great lengths explaining that the Utd price on the NY Stock Exchange went up 200million dollars on the day Fakealdo signed. But didnt comment 2 days later when they were worth less than the original price before he signed.
 
Definitely good enough for a First XI challenging us for the Title (e.g. Chelsea, Liverpool)
Luke Shaw​
Cristiano Ronaldo​
Harry Maguire​
Paul Pogba​
Bruno Fernandes​

Decent enough for a First XI challenging for Top 4 (e.g. Leicester)
David De Gea​
Dean Henderson​
Victor Lindelof​
Eric Bailly​
Raphael Varane​
Edinson Cavani​
Jadon Sancho​
Aaron Wan-Bissaka​
Scott McTominay​

Not good enough for the Top 4 (e.g. not out of place at Spurs, West Ham)
Phil Jones​
Juan Mata​
Anthony Martial​
Marcus Rashford​
Mason Greenwood​
Jesse Lingard​
Fred​
Diogo Dalot​
Donny van de Beek​
No Idea
Anthony Elanga​
Teden Mengi​
Hannibal*​
Shola Shoretire​
Matej Kovar​
Tom Heaton​

Only got to No13 to have not heard of the player.
 
I presume they are all official ones - the snide ones must be off the scale. It’s basically saying they’ve sold about 2m official shirts to their “loyal fan base” this year. They’re a different breed. I don’t get it, but then again I haven’t brought one of ours in the last 20 plus years because I look like a right **** in them.
You might suit a nice red one, just saying.
