YouTube is the world’s biggest video-sharing platform and Cristiano Ronaldo is football’s most followed athlete. There is no ‘math’ required that when two giants combine, it will be a ‘gigantic project’ (to put it in some words). And, as expected similar outcome was seen with multiple records thrashed within hours since Ronaldo announced his YouTube channel. Cristiano Ronaldo’s YouTube Channel -'UR Cristiano' was launched on August 21 and within the first 12 hours, he received the diamond Button –for 10 million subscribers.

In the next two days, the star footballer surpassed his former clubs Real Madrid and Manchester United, Leagues and even FIFA in terms of the number of subscribers. Ironically Cr7 has surpassed YouTube itself in terms of subscriptions. At the time of writing the Al-Nassr star has 48.3 million subscribers and has posted 21 videos and seven shorts. Thanks to his massive fan following and subscribers each posted video has over five million views. While the talented striker has created the channel to connect with fans, providing updates and insights into his life; there are some monetary perks involved also.

How Much Has Cristiano Ronaldo Earned from His YouTube Channel 'UR Cristiano' Since Its Launch?
Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the highest-paid athletes in the world, earning money in terms of salary, sponsorship deals, social media deals, and paid partnerships. But adding a YouTube channel to the mix would provide him with another massive source of income. Ronaldo has become a true YouTube sensation and the few videos he's already posted there have reached 177+ million views. The current standard YouTube pays an average of USD 6 per 1,000 views. With this matrix, Ronaldo has earned millions just from views within the first six days of his channel’s launch.

Adding to this number would be deals he has signed. As per Marca, Cristiano Ronaldo has already made around $100 million and that is counting the potential sponsorship deals. Just so you have a comparative idea, Mr. Beast reportedly makes around $5 million monthly on YouTube ads alone. Well, there is no limit to put on earnings from such a profitable YouTube Channel but the 39-year-old football star certainly has proved that there is hardly any competition for him in terms of popularity.
