Famous Footballers And Their Supercars

It’s well known that many footballers earn more in a week than the average person earns in a whole year.

They always want the biggest and the best when it comes to cars and houses. So it is no surprise that footballers’ cars range from many models all over the world and cost what an ordinary person makes in a five years.

It’s so hard to keep up with footballers’ cars as they change them every now and then. Customisation is one of their favourite things. Custom colors, specially designed rims, customized interiors, and massive sound systems are just some of the many modifications that have become popular among footballers.

According to research from auditing and consulting company Deloitte, it shows how much money is floating around this particular sport, and the reason that the most successful soccer players will want to flash their cash on the road.

Here is a list of cars mega-rich footballers have owned or still own:

#1 Wayne Rooney

Manchester United and England striker Wayne Rooney is one of many footballers who own the popular Range Rover 4×4, which is worth in the region of £100 000. He also has a Lamborghini Gallardo, Bentley Continental GT, Aston Martin Vanquish and BMW M6 in his motoring stable. Now Wayne Rooney wants a Mercedes McLaren SLR convertible with red seats.

#2 Steven Pienaar

One Bafana Bafana midfielder is determined to have the best of both worlds. Steven Pienaar has chosen to plumb for a very black Aston Martin DB9 for occasions that call for power and panache in equal helpings. When he’s feeling more urban and wants to shoot a little more pimp to his motoring juice, the 28-year-old will no doubt fire up his intimidating Mercedes-Benz Geländewagen – one of the most capable 4×4 vehicles ever made. The formidable G-Class shows that Pienaar goes against the grain, as most of his peers would have rather garaged the ubiquitous Audi Q7 and/or BMW X5. Respect young man.

#3 Teko Modise

Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Teko Modise, also known as the General, has been an instrumental player for his team and in many of Bafana Bafana's international matches. Besides being one of the best players, he also has a weakness for luxurious cars. In 2009 he was driving a BMW645. He also owned an Audi RS4 at the time. Now he drives an Aston Martin DB9, Bentley and a Range Rover. 

#4 Claude Makelele

Claude Makelele had one of the most expensive motors in the Stamford Bridge car park – a £350 000 Mercedes McLaren SLR. The SLR hypercar will hit a colossal 207mph. Other cars in his stable include a Ferrari 360 supercar and a Mercedes SL65 AMG - a £150 000 convertible with a more-than-adequate 612bhp and 737lb/ft of pulling power.

#5 Steven Gerrard,Dider Drogba,Theo Walcott & John Terry

Liverpool’s Steven Gerrard and Chelsea striker Dider Drogba both own Ferrari F40s worth over £130 000. Tottenham’s Jermain Defoe and Arsenal winger Theo Walcott are two high-profile players who paid over £100 000 for an Aston Martin DB9. Chelsea captain John Terry boasts a Bentley Continental GT among his fleet of cars.

#6 Cristiano Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo has an Aston Martin DB9, two Ferrari 599 GTB’s, Audi R8, Porsche 911 Carrera Triptonic S, Bentley Continental GTS, Phantom Rolls Royce and the BMW M6. Rolls Royce Phantom is the most expensive car in his fleet worth €340 000.
