Cristiano Ronaldo is back in the spotlight off the field. This time, it's for a luxury item that will cement his standing as one of the world's wealthiest athletes.

The Portuguese star is well-known for not just scoring 971 goals, but also for his luxurious automobiles. He has now added a customized vehicle worth around $1.32 million to his amazing collection, which is widely regarded as one of the most rare on the world.

According to Athlon Sports, it is a modified Mercedes-AMG G63 Cabriolet, an exceptionally rare edition (only 20 units were produced worldwide) that Refined Marques expressly adapted for the soccer star.

It's a soft-top convertible—unusual for a hefty SUV—with rear doors that open rearward for better access.

Furthermore, it has touches that make it even more unique and meaningful for the Portuguese star: it is painted in yellow and blue, the colors of Al Nassr, and the door sills have engraved plaques with his initials and jersey number "CR7."

While the normal G-Wagon is already a luxurious car, this version costs almost $1.32 million.

Given the Portuguese star's wealth, the purchase is unsurprising. After a stellar career at clubs like Manchester United and Real Madrid, where he won several titles, his multi-million-dollar contract with Al Nassr and his personal brand "CR7" have reportedly increased his net worth to about $1.4 billion
