Ivan Rakitić is a former professional footballer who played as a midfielder. Born in Rheinfelden, Switzerland, to Croatian parents, he played for Basel, Schalke 04, Sevilla and Barcelona and made 106 appearances for Croatia. He now serves as technical director of Croatian club Hajduk Split.

Bilanz, the Swiss business magazine, put his fortune at CHF 50–100 million in its 2026 ranking of the 100 richest people in Switzerland under 40, published on April 28, 2026. That is about $61 million to $122 million at the November 6, 2026 exchange rate. Bilanz prints fortunes as ranges, not single numbers, so we show the range exactly as published.

How the estimate works

Bilanz publishes a yearly list of the 100 richest young people in Switzerland, mixing entrepreneurs, heirs and a handful of stars. Rakitić is one of the sportspeople on the 2026 list, with an estimated fortune of CHF 50–100 million. The magazine's own research and estimates, not tax records or official filings, are behind the number.

The ranking counts people who hold a Swiss passport or live in Switzerland, even if they play abroad, and fortunes are shown in Swiss francs in bands such as 10 to 20 million or 20 to 50 million. We use the low end of the band only to sort Rakitić against other athletes on this site, and we never show a single made-up figure.

Career at a glance

Rakitić made his first-team debut for Basel on September 29, 2005 and became a regular in his second season, scoring 11 goals in 33 Super League appearances and winning the 2006–07 young player award. He grew up in Möhlin in the canton of Aargau, and as a teenager he and his family chose to stay at Basel rather than try Arsenal.

He then spent three and a half seasons at Schalke 04 in the Bundesliga before signing for Sevilla in January 2011. He was confirmed as club captain two years later and led Sevilla to the Europa League. In June 2014 he moved to Barcelona, where in his first season he won the treble of La Liga, the Copa del Rey and the Champions League and scored the first goal of the 2015 final.

After appearing in 310 games for Barcelona he returned to Sevilla in 2020 and won the Europa League again in 2023. He played for Switzerland at youth level but chose Croatia, reached the 2018 World Cup final with them, and retired from international football in September 2020.
