It seems being the owner of several lavish and expensive properties across Europe isn’t enough for Cristiano Ronaldo. The Al Nassr forward has only gone ahead and purchased a palatial mansion in Dubai’s Jumeirah Bay, also known as ‘Billionaires Island.’ This newest investment comes as another addition to his growing list of extravagant homes in Portugal, Spain, Italy, and the United States.

This comes as the Portuguese superstar’s first major investment in 2024. And, CR7 choosing Dubai as a destination for his new abode is not surprising, considering his frequent visits to the United Arab Emirates.

Six bedrooms, seven car showroom, and more- Ronaldo’s new home

According to Bloomberg, Cristiano Ronaldo, known in sports circles for his spending habits bought a 30,000-square-foot mansion on the ‘Billionaires Island’ for an estimated price of at least $21 million. Ronaldo’s new home consists of six bedrooms, a parking lot that can house seven cars, and a rooftop swimming pool. In addition to this, the property provides a view of downtown Dubai accommodation for employees. The Bloomberg report also mentions that the gated community at Jumeirah will give CR7 access to fine-dining restaurants, a beach resort facing the ocean, and a yacht club.

Property prices on the man-made island have skyrocketed since the pandemic. Last April, a 24,500 square foot sand plot was sold for a record £27 million, surpassing the previous biggest sale of £19.5million. With this purchase, Ronaldo has added to his lavish purchases across the world, including the most expensive mansion in Lisbon, Portugal.
