Über diesen Titel

 AI host Riley Knox traces football's transformation from working class sport to billion-dollar industry. The episode begins with Pelé earning five thousand dollars for winning the 1958 World Cup, contrasting it with Cristiano Ronaldo's current two hundred million dollars annually in Saudi Arabia. Riley explores how the 1995 Bosman Ruling revolutionized player power, enabling athletes to become brands and business empires. The episode profiles billionaire footballers including Ronaldo's one billion dollar Nike deal and CR Seven empire, Messi's eight hundred million dollar fortune built through equity stakes at Inter Miami, and David Beckham's post-retirement lifestyle brand worth half a billion. Riley exposes the stark inequality between male superstars and women's football, where top players earn in days what women earn annually. The episode questions whether extreme wealth and sportswashing deals with authoritarian regimes compromise football's soul while examining players who lost fortunes despite earning millions.
