Vinnie Jones net worth unveiled
Untold UK: Vinnie Jones has just landed on Netflix and reveals all about the 61-year-old’s turbulent life and career.
From his start as a standout defensive midfielder for clubs like Wimbledon FC and Leeds United to his legendary appearances in TV and cinema, the renowned Londoner has been a celebrated tough guy for decades.
The fresh Netflix documentary scrutinises his career and includes exclusive chats with Vinnie himself, as he reminisces about his journey including his pivotal part in guiding Wimbledon to triumph at the 1988 FA Cup final and his notoriously combative playing approach.
He has subsequently gained recognition for his parts in major British and Hollywood productions and series, including his partnerships with Guy Ritchie in Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Netflix’s The Gentlemen, reports the Mirror.
Nevertheless, there’s one query supporters will be pondering that the Netflix series doesn’t address: precisely how much has Vinnie accumulated throughout his five-decade career?
What is Vinnie Jones’ net worth?
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Vinnie is worth an impressive $10 million (£8 million) as of this year.
This stems from his combined income initially as a midfielder for various football clubs, including Wimbledon, Leeds, Sheffield United, Chelsea, and Queens Park Rangers.
He also represented and captained the Wales national team, before his fame soared with parts in numerous popular films and TV programmes. At one stage, he was rumoured to have pocketed £505,000 a week and was quoted by The Sun as slamming the criticism of footballers’ wages as “nonsense”.
Watch Unchosen on Sky for free
Sky is giving away a free Netflix subscription with its new Sky Stream TV bundles, including the £15 Essential TV plan.
This lets members watch live and on-demand TV content without a satellite dish or aerial and includes hit shows.
This includes the brand new UK drama Unchosen, starring Asa Butterfield and Christopher Eccleston.
“You don’t say that Rod Stewart is getting paid too much at 75, 80, do you?” he said. “Madonna, is she being overpaid? She’s out there for an hour and gets X amount of millions.”
Nevertheless, during his latter football career at QPR he was reportedly collecting around £10,000 per week.
His acting work has proved even more profitable for the Watford-born tough guy, as Vinnie’s sporting career unfolded in the 1980s and 90s before the massive explosion in footballers’ salaries.
For example, for his supporting part in the John Travolta and Hugh Jackman-led crime thriller Swordfish, he earned £2 million for merely 49 words of dialogue – a handsome £40,816 per word.
Vinnie was also reportedly paid £300,000 for sitting down with Netflix for his new Untold UK doc.
He currently lives on a 2,000-acre rural estate in Petworth, West Sussex, half of which he rents out. Supporters can learn more about his stunning property in the Discovery+ series Vinnie Jones in the Country.
While specifics about the estate’s value remain unclear, it’s estimated that the property’s worth also runs into the multi-millions.
