    In the money leagues, top stars like Marta and Megan Rapinoe may earn just a fraction of their equivalents in the men’s game.

    Here, we reveal some of the highest earners who will be dazzling in Australia and New Zealand over the coming weeks.

    The forward reportedly earns £311,000 a year at Orlando Pride, topped up by sponsorship deals with the likes of LATAM Airlines, Avon Brasil, shampoo brand Clear and pharmaceutical company Neo Quimica.
    In some of her campaigns for Clear, she has appeared with Cristiano Ronaldo. She has also had deals with Coca-Cola and Puma.
    Marta is Brazil’s all-time top goalscorer, with a record 17 World Cup goals, and has been named FIFA’s World Player of the Year five consecutive times.

    As the skipper of Lyon at club level, she is one of the most decorated players in modern times, with an astonishing 15 French league titles and eight European Cups to her name.
    It’s no surprise then that she’s on a reported £298,000-a-year salary.
    One of her sponsors is Adidas and she was previously an ambassador for MasterCard alongside England’s Alex Scott, too.
    Earlier this year, she told fans she was pulling out of what will be her third World Cup.
    She said in a statement: “It is a sad day, but necessary to preserve my mental health. It is with a heavy heart that I come to inform you of my decision to step back from the French team.”
    However, after returning to the French team for friendlies against Colombia and Canada in April, she will be wearing the armband once more this tournament.
    Megan Rapinoe

    With her signature bleached hair and even more dazzling footwork, USA winger Megan is one of the most instantly recognisable female footballers in the world.
    At the last World Cup in 2019, her celebration against France – in which she saluted the crowd with outstretched arms – became an instant meme and even went on to be added into the FIFA video game.
    The athlete, 38, is thought to take home a salary of £348,000 from OL Reign and, according to Celebrity Net Worth, has a fortune of £3.9million.
    She tops this up with sponsorship deals and cover interviews, having appeared on the front page of Sports Illustrated, Marie Claire, and InStyle.
    Her brands deals include luxury fashion brand Loewe, Nike and Samsung.

    England fans will remember USA striker Alex for her now infamous tea-drinking celebration, after scoring the winner against the Lionesses at the last World Cup.
    The San Diego Wave FC captain – who CNW estimates has a fortune of £2.3million – has played in 217 international matches and made a short-lived move to Tottenham back in 2020.
    Away from the pitch, the 34-year-old has published The Kicks, a four-book series for school children and even appeared in a music video for Maroon 5’s song “Girls Like You”, which features Cardi B.
    Her long list of sponsorship deals include Nike, Panasonic, AT&T, Chobani, McDonald’s, P&G, Mondelez International, and Coca-Cola.
    She is married to Servando Carrasco, also a football player, and they have one child together, three-year-old Charlie.
    Lucy Bronze

    British Lucy, 31, is one of the wealthiest Lionesses and is thought to take home around £200,000 a year for FC Barcelona.
    The right-back has played for the England team since 2013 and has also represented the country in the Olympics. She tops up her earnings with deals from Pepsi, EE, Klarna, and Visa.
    Lucy is believed to be the top-earning England player, but along with other Lionesses has slammed the FA’s decision not to pay players extra money on top of the funds dished out by FIFA this tournament.
    Speaking about it, she said: “We want to keep pushing our own standards, but also our federations’ standards, the FIFA and UEFA standards. It isn’t just about the numbers. It is the principle of what we want to improve in women’s football.
    “There is always another step the game can take. Whether that is commercial, on the pitch or off the pitch, whether it is performance based or not. It is about being rewarded for what we have done – we are the European Champions.”
    Sam Kerr

    Goal-machine Sam, 29, is believed to take home a salary of £400,000 a year at Chelsea, who she has just helped to another Women’s Super League title.
    The Australian captains her national team and will be hoping to take them all the way as the hosts.
    Her 13-year deal with Nike is thought to be worth $1million. She was also the first female player to appear on the cover of the FIFA video game.
    Sam also has sponsorship deals with luxury watch brand IWC Schaffhausen, Australian bank CommBank, and EA Sports.
    Chloe Kelly

    England’s super-sub Chloe, 25, secured her place in the history books at last year’s Euros with her winning goal against Germany.
    It is not known how much her Man City contract is worth, but the club’s average salary for female players is thought to be around £75,000 a year.
    However, off the back of her legendary goal – and celebration – last year, Chloe remains one of England’s most marketable stars.
    The Mail on Sunday reported that she was set to sign a deal with Land Rover worth up to £2 million.
    A spokesperson for Chloe told the paper: “I can’t comment on her business dealings but… she is in demand.”

    She has also worked with Nike, KFC and last month appeared in a Calvin Klein ad alongside Alex Morgan. More

    I was born into poverty and grew up in a slum – now I’m a world champion boxer & multi-millionaire

    A BOXER who was born into poverty and grew up in a slum defied the odds to become a world-champion fighter and multi-millionaire.Roberto Duran scooped titles at lightweight, welterweight, light middleweight and middleweight in a iconic fighting career spanning over 30 years.

    Duran, 72, is considered by many as the greatest lightweight boxer of all time as well as one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in boxing history.
    He racked up an astonishing pro record of 103-16 during his time in the ring, with 70 wins coming via knockout.
    But the boxer – famously known as ‘The Hands of Stone’ – did not have an easy route to the big time.
    Duran grew up in the slums of El Chorrillo, steps away from the Panama Canal.
    Read More in Sport
    Born into a life of poverty, he shined shoes and sold newspapers from the age of five to help support his family.
    Growing up in Chorillo, a tough district, he had to learn to fight to survive from a very young age.
    In the tough neighbourhood, Duran wanted to stay in one piece, according to The Ring magazine.
    The boxing legend felt he was too young to die and developed his trademark tenacity and courage by learning to fight hard.
    Most read in Boxing
    Duran’s own words in the documentary film ‘I am Duran’, on the reason he became a boxer were: “My family didn’t have money to eat, we slept in an entrance way, that’s why I became a boxer.”
    Duran, who fought professionally from 1968 to 2001, enjoys legendary status in Panama and Latin America.
    The retired Panamanian boxer reportedly boasts a net worth of £2,349,600 according to Celebrity Net Worth.
    Duran’s finest performance arguably came against Sugar Ray Leonard in the 1980 Montreal match up when he became WBC welterweight champ.
    But their second fight months later was one of the most lucrative fights in boxing history at the time.
    Duran withdrew midway through the clash by famously saying “No mas” — “No more.”
    However, Duran still earned a reported £5million for the rematch.
    Duran’s last fight was a defeat on points to Hector Camacho in July 2001.
    After a number of premature retirements in the 1980s and 90s, Duran retired for good in early 2002 following a car crash in Argentina.
    During his career, the second-longest of any boxer in history, the 5ft 7in superhero inspired a downtrodden nation and redefined what it meant to be a fighter.
    Read More On The Sun
    A movie about his career was released in 2016.
    Duran was inducted into the World Boxing Hall of Fame in 2006 and the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2007.

    IBF bantamweight champion Ebanie Bridges is one of several fighters raking in the cash from the site and reckons McGregor – who she recently met – should follow suit.
    The Aussie told OnlyAccounts: “He might have some ideas of doing it.
    “I do give a lot of people the idea though of joining OnlyFans – especially women as some people look down on it as a bad thing.
    “But it’s not, it’s exclusive content from athletes and celebrities.”

    Bridges is adamant McGregor doesn’t need to flog racy snaps as she and some of her fellow fighters do on the website.
    She continued: “It doesn’t need to be sex and porn as it’s not like that.
    “I’m not a blogger or Instagram a lot by telling people all the time what I’m doing, but on my OnlyFans, I do.
    “So all the fans know what I’m up to – at home or when out, plus behind the scenes.

    “He’s awesome and so effervescent and has that energy – when Connor walks in the room he lights it up and he’s very inspiring.”
    Bridges, 36, hasn’t set foot inside the ring since her eighth-round TKO of fellow Aussie Shannon O’Connell last December.
    McGregor, meanwhile, has been on the sidelines for the last two years after breaking his leg in his UFC 264 trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier. More

    Last year Manchester City tabled a £135million bid for the star.

    He’s already signed large sum contracts including with Puma for a reported £10m, Gucci for a reported £10m and BooHooMan for a reported £1m.
