It must be rewarding being friends with Cristiano Ronaldo.
According to Portuguese news outlet Move Noticas, the Real Madrid star reportedly bought his agent and close friend Jorge Mendes a Greek island as a wedding present. Ronaldo acted as the best man at Mendes’ wedding this past weekend. Of course, being the best man also means you have to splash the cash for a pretty good wedding gift.
While for most people that typically means buying expensive kitchen appliances and silverware, for Ronaldo that means purchasing a Greek island.
The exact amount Ronaldo paid hasn’t yet been reported. But, according to Private Islands Online, the costs of a Greek island ranges from $3.4 million to $54 million. Price, however, shouldn’t be too much of a concern for Ronaldo. In the last year alone he made nearly $80 million, making him the third-highest-paid athlete in the world, according to Forbes.
