Play Football get rich... That's the Football you play with your feet!

A recent study points out that Britain’s Football Association (FA) is the world leader when it comes to attracting sponsorship, having netted more sponsorship income than any other national governing body at this year's World Cup, with annual revenue from such deals totaling more than $75m. Lucrative contracts with brands such as Nationwide, McDonald's, Pepsi, Carlsberg and Umbro put the FA more than $35m a year ahead of its nearest counterpart, the Italian FA, which brings in $40m a year in sponsorship, followed by France with $32m, Japan with $22m and Brazil with $21m. Also of the 20 richest footballers in the world, based on annual income derived from personal-endorsement deals, seven are English - a higher proportion than any other country. And, no surprises here, England captain David Beckham tops the players rich list. He earned $20m last year from tie-ups with brands including Adidas and Pepsi. This places him significantly ahead of Brazil striker Ronaldo with $14m and France midfield star Zinedine Zidane's $7m. And when England wins the World Cup… You read it here first!!! They’ll be rolling in dough!david_beckham.jpg

Yeah... You'd be smiling if you made that much money for "Bending it like Beckham!"
