LIONESS champion Lucy Bronze has proved herself to be a winner off the pitch after netting herself a million.
The Sun can exclusively reveal that the England star, 34, has become a millionaire thanks to her chunky salary and a number of lucrative sponsorship deals.
On top of her Chelsea pay, worth around £200,000 a year, Bronze – a double European champion with the Lionesses – has landed lucrative sponsorship deals with the likes of Nike, Visa, Pepsi, EE and Rexona.
Latest figures for her sports firm LRTB Limited – named after her initials, Lucia Roberta Tough Bronze – show that she now has net assets worth £1,052,878 – a rise of £350,000 compared to the previous season.
Bronze, with 144 England caps, is set to bank hundreds of thousands more too, as her latest accounts don’t cover last summer, when the Lionesses beat Spain to win the Euros after a dramatic penalty shootout.
She is set to bank a number of bumper bonuses from sponsors following that victory.

Bronze played a key role in England’s retaining of the trophy, playing in all six of their matches – despite having a BROKEN LEG throughout the tournament.
Reflecting on the tournament and her injury, the full-back told the Metro last year: “Knowledge of the injury was something we wanted to keep within our bubble and I didn’t want a big deal made out of it and I also didn’t expect any special treatment.
“For me, it was the usual ‘I’ve just got to get on with it’ mentality. Yes, some people were shocked that I was playing through the pain, but my pain threshold is a bit different.
“I had conversations with boss Sarina Wiegman and the England medical staff, who supported me throughout, about the plan and the risks of playing on, but there was never a question in my mind I would do so.

“The moment I really thought about it was when our captain Leah Williamson got injured in the quarter-final against Sweden and was in quite a lot of pain.
“I remember her saying to me: ‘If you can play with a broken leg, I can play on with this.’“
Bronze missed the start of the 2025-26 WSL season due to the leg injury.
She was also unavailable for two games earlier this month with pain in the same area.
