We always knew that Cristiano Ronaldo's move to Juventus was going to be a lucrative one, but perhaps not this lucrative.
The release of the salaries earned by Serie A players has revealed that as Italian football's top earner, Ronaldo brings a staggering £28m (€31m) a year, which is £19.4m more than the second highest Gonzalo Higuain, who banks £8.6m (€9.5m) a year after his move from Juve to AC Milan.
