As you might have guessed, it’s none other than that famous soccer player (decreasing in popularity now ;-)), David Robert Joseph Beckham.
This 35-year old US Galaxy midfielder (currently on loan to AC Milan) earns US$40 million yearly. But you might be surprised that he does not get most of his earnings from his soccer career. Majority of the US$40 million comes from his sponsors, most notably Adidas, Giorgio Armani, Motorola and a few others.
Second to David Beckham is Cristiano Ronaldo, earning US$30 million annually. Ronaldo might be able to beat Beckham and get the World’s Richest Soccer Player for 2011 title because Beckham’s gonna lose much money this year due to his absence for the World Cup 2010. He will not be playing for England after tearing his left Achilles’ tendon just last month, in March while playing for AC Milan against ChievoVerona. He’s gonna be missing in action for about 4 months. So he won’t be very active with his sponsors which will result in lesser income from them.

According to Forbes and most sources, Beckham’s the richest for now. Only France Football says it’s Messi, as referenced from Marca.com. It’d be good if you could provide me your source(s) so I can check and edit my post accordingly.
