BERNARDO SILVA has reportedly been offered £80 a MINUTE to play in Saudi Arabia.
But that’s still pennies compared to Cristiano Ronaldo’s salary in the Middle East.
Silva, 28, has been tipped for a shock Manchester City exit just weeks after winning the Treble.
The Portugal international has reportedly received several transfer offers from clubs in Saudi.
But Al-Hilal are now said to be leading the race after presenting Silva with a long-term deal worth over £41million per year.

That stunning salary works out at £3.4m each month.
And should he accept, Silva’s bank balance will rise nearly £798,000 every week.
Breaking it down further, the wage agreement would boost Silva’s net worth by over £133k each day.
That boils down to staggering hourly payments of £4,748 – which works out at £80 a minute and £1.30 per second.
However, Silva’s proposed offer would still trail in the wake of Ronaldo’s Al-Nassr contract.

The veteran earns a world-record £173m a year in Saudi Arabia.
His Gulf state contract breaks down to an incredible £330 per minute – giving him a wage boost of £5.50 every SECOND.
