Well one could also apply it proportionally.

Hard to find comparisons as Premier league affiliated teams tend to bury the women's finances within the greater club, but if we say the WSL's TV deal is currently worth 24m, while the Premier League's is worth around 1.5bn and apply that ratio, then the equivalent of Ronaldo's 480k per week would be about 7700 per week.

Sam Kerr at Chelsea is on about 7300 per week.
