DHAKA – International footballers and their love for cars is no surprise to anyone. The players will often have the most expensive cars lined up in their garages, making the odd mix of multiple luxury brands look like they just belong together. Here are the top 5 international football players with the most expensive cars in their possessions.
Cristiano Ronaldo
Ronaldo is well-known for his splurging habits and is the proud owner of more than 20 supercars. While automobiles are definitely his specialty, Ronaldo seems to have a knack for collecting sports cars. As of 2022, this footballer has a Bugatti Veyron, McLaren Senna, Lamborghini Aventador LP-700, Bugatti Chiron, McLaren MP4-12C, and a Porsche 911 Turbo S in his line of sports cars which roughly total up to a little over $18 million.
On days when these beauties rest in his garage, Ronaldo will be seen in one of his two Rolls Royces — a Phantom or a Cullinan with a total worth of $1.3 million.
Other honourable mentions from his garage include three Ferraris, two Bentley cars, and three Porsches.
Lionel Messi
Although Messi does not display his cars quite as much, the collection has not escaped the public eye.
For his regular rides, Messi tends to choose from one of his three Audis, two Range Rovers, or a Cadillac Escalade. Although he owns a number of Maserati Gran Turismos, the MC Stradale definitely ranks among Messi’s top choices.
His recent purchase of the classic Ferrari 335S Spider Scaglietti at a whopping $30 million has created quite a buzz. Commonly known as the ‘prancing horse of 1957,’ this is one of the rarest cars in the world. A rare Pagani Zonda Tricolore and a Mercedes SLS AMG are also among the classy and sporty cars that add to Messi’s car extravaganza.
David Beckham
Beckham is easily one of the classiest and wealthiest players to have ever graced the game. The legend has well over 20 of the world’s most expensive cars in his possession and the number seems to be ever-growing.
Although Rolls Royce seems to be a popular choice among athletes, Beckham’s Drophead Coupe definitely takes the cake. Additionally, the fact that only 50 of these cars exist in the world and one of them is owned by David Beckham, only means that it increases in value by the minute.
The Jaguar F-Type Project 7, which can reach 62 mph in just 3.4 seconds is seen as Beckham’s weekend toy. While the player has also been photographed driving his Aston Martin V8 Vantage and Lamborghini Gallardo at various times, the Bentley GT SuperSports, Rolls Royce Ghost, and Chevrolet Camaro SS are also among common rides
Neymar Junior
Much like his fellow footballers, Neymar does not mind splurging over supercars every now and then and expanding his collection.
The Brazilian star player owns some of the most expensive four-wheelers, including a $2 million Maserati MC12, a $2.3 million Aston Martin Vulcan, and a $4.5 million Lamborghini Veneno. His super luxurious garage is also home to numerous Mercedes AMG models, a McLaren 5705, a Range Rover SVA, a Porsche Panamera Turbo, and many more.
Karim Benzema
Following his recent Ballon d’Or victory, Karim Benzema is currently regarded as the world’s best player. The sports star is known for his lavish lifestyle as well as love for cars, and his garage houses a stellar collection that keeps growing.
Among Benzema’s amazing collection are three Lamborghinis, two Roll-Royces, and two Bugattis. The player also owns a Ferrari 458 Spider, Mercedes AMG, and a Mercedes Benz SLR McLaren. With his larger-than-life personality, this French striker often enjoys showing off his $10 million collection of customised cars on social media.
