32 million of which came from contracts with Nike and Tag Heuer.

In addition to the mentioned cars, he also owns Bentley, Porsche and Mercedes, among others.
In 2009, when he was still playing for the Red Devils, he wrecked his Ferrari worth more than 200,000 in Manchester.
He recently signed a lifetime contract with the Nike brand, which is expected to net him around 24 million US dollars annually. With such a life annuity, Nike will pay him one billion dollars until he is 73 years old.
