London
There are various wealthier footballers in the world just like Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi but the richest player is a 20-year-old Leicester City footballer. Young Faiq Bolkiah is the richest player in the world as he belongs to the family of the Sultan of Brunei. He is the nephew of the Sultan, Hassanal Bolkiah, whose fortunes are valued at $20 billion. His father, Jefri Bolkiah, owner of at least 2300 cars is not far behind either because according to British sources he spent around 14 million euros on his 50th birthday when he hired Michael Jackson for a private concert with his family. —Agencies
