Soccer-Who Wants To Be The Next Millionaire?

When you think in football it is the first thing that comes to mind. Your thoughts can evoke vivid images of Ronaldo, a goal or dribbling past a certain number of players. You can refer to Manchester United or Barcelona, and even remember the days that have marked the green pastures. The modern game of football has changed the way we see sport as an amateur. Players these days are worshiped by all corners of the world and some are even more popular than their local governments or rock star. The point I am trying to make is that football has become big business for everyone involved. The salaries of players in recent years are undoubtedly the best and it seems that the world economy has no effect on their wages. Some might argue that these players like Ronaldo, Kaka and Messi, who is not worth six figures receive each week. Yes, you heard right, every week. But before discussing their salaries, we will investigate why the club pays this kind of money. The clubs are willing to pay that much money because their return on investment allowed to do so. Having a player like Cristiano Ronaldo on his payroll, bank guarantees of millions of dollars in endorsements and merchandise. Even if the club pays a hefty sum for his services, the club gets the economic benefit and in the Premiership. This is a beneficial situation for both parties. Great football players always stand out for the big clubs, because to understand the benefits of winning trophies. With the success and trophies as sponsorship and crowds and large international fan base. This inevitably leads to some club color of billions of dollars a year, all on autopilot. With the success in the park is the opportunity to act on the biggest stage the sport has to offer, the Champions League. The Champions League offers the best teams from across Europe to compete and test their Home Grown talent against some of the biggest clubs in the land. Knowing what is the economic benefit to a club that won the Cup in prestige? Look it up, but make sure they are seated.
