‘Best boss I ever had’ – Cristiano Ronaldo’s former bodyguard reveals risks of protecting star and how much he was paid
CRISTIANO RONALDO’s former bodyguard has revealed the eye-watering sum he was paid to protect the footie icon.
Hichman Bukhari was part of CR7’s security detail for four years when the Portugal star plied his trade with Real Madrid.
The private military contractor (PMC) and close protection operative (CPO) was by Ronaldo’s side every time he stepped out in the Spanish capital or jetted to a luxurious location.
Bukhari attended some high-profile events during his watch of Ronaldo, which earned him a whopping £850 a day.
That equated to a whopping £4,250 for a five-day week and £21,250 per month.
His annual salary for a five-day week worked out to be a cool £255,000.
Despite having to fend off scores of adoring footie fans, paparazzi galore and the occasional thief, Bukhari insists working with Ronaldo was a breeze.
During an appearance on Telecinco, he said: “Our work depends on the client’s profile.
“In the case of Cristiano, with whom I worked for four years, his profile wasn’t high-risk because people didn’t want to kill him, and he didn’t receive death threats.
“He was threatened by fans or people who wanted to rob him.

Inside Cristiano Ronaldo's incredible life
AS arguably the greatest player of all time, Cristiano Ronaldo lives a life befitting such a superstar.
Ron loves a fast motor almost as much as scoring goals with his vast car collection including one costing £9MILLION.
Upon moving to Saudi – Ronaldo moved into a luxury skyscraper hotel before swapping it for an Arabian mansion.
As a globetrotter, Ronaldo likes to travel in style like onboard this luxury private jet.
Behind every great man is a great woman, and Ronaldo has one in partner Georgina Rodriguez.
Georgina opened up on the moment they first met when she was working as a shop girl, saying it was “love at first sight”.
Before meeting Georgina, Ronaldo dated some of the world’s hottest women including Kim Kardashian and Irina Shayk.
Now it’s all about the family, with Ronaldo’s offspring now capable of making up a five-a-side team.
Ronaldo’s very well paid on the pitch, but he makes a ton of money off it too with endorsement deals ranging from KFC to his own range of underpants.
He’s also a prolific investor and owns a string of hotels.
He’s currently building a holiday resort in the Red Sea which has been dubbed “a new paradise”.
Ronaldo gives back too – which is one of the reasons he doesn’t have any tattoos.
He’s highly dedicated, as a look inside his health and fitness regime shows.
That dedication saw him transform from a weedy teen to hulking Adonis.

“We always have to know where we’re going, who will be there, and have clear entry and exit points, as well as contact points.
“We must always be aware that our lives could be at risk.
“We have to be willing to protect a person, and sometimes we have to give our lives to protect them.
“If I have to use weapons, I will use them.
“The most important thing is having the ability to think quickly, solve problems, and remain calm in difficult situations.”
Bukhari has fond memories of his time protecting Ronaldo, who was his “best” employer to date.
He said of the five-time Ballon d’Or winner: “He is the best boss I’ve ever had.
He was threatened by fans or people who wanted to rob him.”

“We have a good relationship.
‘Working with him wasn’t like working with someone threatened with death or kidnap.
“We had some silly incidents with paparazzi or crazy fans, but nothing major.”
Ronaldo and his Portugal team-mates booked their place in the Nations League final on Wednesday night with a 2-1 win over Germany.
Ronaldo set up an all-Iberian final against Spain with a 68-minute winner.

One Punch Man is a revolutionary shonen manga that upended the genre’s conventions with a protagonist who defies the traditional arc of growth. You know, the whole “start out as weak and get stronger” shit. Yeah, Saitama wants none of that. He instead starts at the peak of power, and is capable of defeating any […]
