News Story Says: Cristiano Ronaldo Gives Most Valuable Car As Real Madrid Players Get Their Annual Free Audis

As part of the partnership between Real Madrid and Audi, all 23 members of the squad plus the manager are given a brand new free car every year. The handover of the keys to these cars has been turned into a promotional event, but the distribution of who gets which models seems to be a sign of the hierarchy within the team. For example, even though Gareth Bale encroached on Cristiano Ronaldo’s world record transfer fee over the summer, Audi doesn’t seem to feel the Welshman is worthy of a car worth anywhere near as much as the one Ronaldo gets.

The most valuable automobile on offer was the RS6 Avant, which starts at 129,100 euros, and that only went to Ronaldo. Xabi Alonso took the 96,110 euros worth model S7, The third most valuable car went to vice-captain Sergio Ramos, the RS5 is priced at 90,730 euros. The A8, which starts at 85,320 euros was gifted to manager Carlo Ancelotti.
