Jannik Sinner becomes the new income king of Italian sports . |
According to Gazzetta dello Sport , Sinner achieved a record income of 45 million euros in 2025, mostly from commercial contracts with leading brands such as Nike, Rolex, Lavazza, Gucci... In addition, he pocketed more than 7 million euros in ATP bonuses after just half a season, after winning the Australian Open, Wimbledon and a series of Masters titles.
Gazzetta said that this list only considers income in one season, not total accumulated assets, and is converted according to current exchange rates and inflation. Thereby, the world number one tennis player is the new "financial king" of Italian sports.
Sinner is only 23 years old, but he has surpassed many Italian sports legends to take the lead in seasonal earnings. Not only is he the first male tennis player in the world to be number one in Italian history, Sinner has also become a new symbol of Italian sport in the era of globalization - young, successful and full of commercial appeal.
Behind Sinner on the list is Marco Verratti, a midfielder currently playing for Al-Duhail (Qatar), with a salary of up to 35 million euros/year in the 2023 season. MotoGP legend Valentino Rossi is third with an estimated income of 32 million euros at his peak in 2008-2009, after converting to today's value.
The other two names in the top 5 include Danilo Gallinari, a basketball player who received 24 million euros when playing in the NBA, and rookie Mateo Retegui, who is about to sign a contract worth 20 million euros/year with Al-Qadsiah Club in Saudi Arabia.
On July 14, Sinner proved his world class by defeating Carlos Alcaraz 3-1 in the 2025 Wimbledon final. Sinner became the Italian tennis player with the most Grand Slam titles in history. This was also the first time he won Wimbledon in his career.
