If you had to make a guess or just a rough estimation about who is the richest footballer in the world, you'd either Google it or probably think it's Messi or Ronaldo ( unless your facts are on point). However, it's actually this cool guy called Faiq Bolkiah who plays for Leicester City.

Let's introduce you to his extravagant life. For starters, he is the nephew of the Sultan of Brunei (Hassanal Bolkiah) - who himself is worth an estimated $20billion. Faiq started his career by playing with Newbury initially.

Happy Birthday Uncle Sultan

He signed up a two year contract with Chelsea but ended up with Leicester after one year of his game. He was born in the US but given his love for his country, he decided to play for Brunei.  A peak into his life is enough to make envy run through everyone's veins. Also, how many people do you know have tigers for pets?

Apparently, his dad even shelled out a whopping 12 million pounds to get Michael Jackson to sing for his birthday once.

One may think why he plays football at all but for Faiq it's about his passion not money.

The man's got royal blood running through his veins and kicks a ball like no one's business. A quick Google search on the 'richest footballer in the world' would get you Kaka's name, who enjoys an estimate of around $103 million and is self made. But if you count a proper estimate of family wealth, no one comes close to Faiq.
