Carli Lloyd net worth
The discrepancies between female and male football players earnings has been well documented and recent rich listings between those in the women's game compared to the Forbes sporting rich list showcase just how men's levels of income dwarf those in the women's game.
With Lionel Messi earning 71 million euro in 2020 with FC Barcelona, Lloyd (who was the highest earning club player in the world) earned 450,000 with USWL side NJ/NYC Gotham. Reports suggest that Lloyd's net worth is approximately 2 million US dollars with her club salary augmented with a number of lucrative sponsorship deals. The two-time FIFA World Cup winner works with a portfolio of brands such as Visa, Heineken, Beats by Dre and Nike.
