Cristiano Ronaldo has added to his property collection with the purchase of a mega-mansion on Dubai’s ‘Billionaire’s Island’ that cost tens of millions of pounds, according to reports.

The purchase adds to the £175m-a-year football superstar’s incredible property collection.

As per Bloomberg, the Portuguese superstar bought the mansion on Jumeirah Bay Island, which is better known as ‘Billionaires Island’, a secluded Dubai enclave that is home to the super-rich.

The report disclosed that Ronaldo will receive the mega-mansion, rumoured to cost in the region of tens of millions of euros, at some point in 2024.

It is known as Billionaires Island because the number of billionaires who live there per square km reportedly surpasses any other location in the UAE, with Bloomberg also reporting how the island is home to wealthy Saudis, Israelis, Indians and Russians.

Ronaldo would be expected to spend time there with his partner Georgina Rodriguez and his five children, with a flight from Riyadh, where he is based in Saudi Arabia, taking just two hours, the report adds.
