Who is Richer: Messi or Michael Jordan?

Published in Sports and Entertainment 1 min read

Michael Jordan is currently richer than Lionel Messi.

While both are considered legends in their respective sports, their net worths differ significantly.

  • Michael Jordan's net worth is estimated to be around $2.2 billion as of 2023, according to Forbes.
  • Lionel Messi's net worth is estimated to be around $600 million as of 2023.

This disparity in net worth is attributed to various factors:

  • Endorsements: Jordan has long been a global icon, securing lucrative endorsement deals with brands like Nike, Gatorade, and Hanes.
  • Investments: Jordan has diversified his investments beyond sports, including ownership stakes in the Charlotte Hornets NBA team and a golf course.
  • Business Ventures: Jordan has established his own successful brand, Air Jordan, which continues to generate significant revenue.

While Messi has lucrative endorsement deals with Adidas and other brands, his current net worth falls short of Jordan's due to these factors.
