The Football.....

What "maths" would that be?

He has made more than enough money to be able to afford said house without ever playing another game.

And it is unlikley any Portuguese club could afford him unless he takes a massive pay cut. His slaary both at United and Juventus before that was in the region of £26,000,000. The highest paid Benfica player is on about €4,000,000. Their entire annual payroll is less in Euros than he was paid in sterling. Porto have a similar total payroll, though one player on €5,770,000. Sporting Lisbon are well below that on both counts. And those are the three biggest clubs in Portugal.

there is a small chance he may "do a Downing" and return to Sporting Lisbon on a much reduced wage. He could then play in europa league

I wonder what he will do with his life after football ? I cannot see a life 'in the media' he is such
an egotistical character, will he accept other opinions ? Maybe sit in his big house and count his money ?

No i suspect he will continue his CR7 Foundation work. He donates more to charity than any other sportsman.

No figures either...

To be honest, the money isn't really the issue. It's been well documented that he's donated significant amounts, and a lot of time to various organisations and individuals. It's not a competition.
