Arsenal midfielder Andrey Arshavin is raking in the cash from endorsement deals.
Russia's version of Forbes magazine ranks Arshavin third in the country's most highly paid sports stars.
Advertising alone earned Arshavin $2.1 million last year, with only two other footballers in the top 10.
CSKA Moscow goalkeeper Igor Akinfeev, who has been linked with Manchester United, and Zenit St. Petersburg new signing Sergei Semak were the others featured.
The top rank was won by a huge margin; tennis star Maria Sharapova's advertising revenues are estimated, for last season alone, at $24 million.
