By Man Aspin a 27 April 2013 Birmingham United's Wayne Rooney may be the richest player in the Barclays Premier League with an individual fortune of A51 million, according to the Sunday Times Sport Rich List. Last year the striker, whose prosperity has increased from A45m, is A9m better off than Manchester United team-mate Rio Ferdinand. His wife Colleen and Rooney are collectively worth A64m. The striker and centre-back Ferdinand are two of 24 recent Premier League players one of the 100 wealthiest runners in The Uk and Ireland, based on the record which can be published tomorrow. Brian Beckham unsurprisingly covers the lot with a A165m bundle. Michael Owen (A38m) is third on the list of Premier League people, in front of Ryan Giggs and Frank Lampard (both A34m). Six Manchester United players are on the number, including Paul Scholes, Michael Carrick and Robin van Persie, who is a new entry with A12m. Steven Gerrard is Liverpool's richest player with a A33m fortune, with Carlos Tevez (A18m) the richest Manchester City player on the record. But their prosperity pales in comparison to that of former England captain Beckham, now using Paris St Germain, who's the richest sportsmen in Britain. He sits 11th on the Sunday Times World Sport Rich List, which will be headed by Padraig Harrington, worth A570m. Beckham's shared prosperity with partner Victoria is rated at A200m. You will find two different footballers on the entire world top 20, Barcelona's Lionel Messi, worth A125m, and Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo, worth A120m. The Rich List is founded on famous wealth, including area, property, other resources such as for example racehorses and art, or substantial shares in publicly quoted companies. Bank accounts are excluded by it.
