Brian O’Driscoll earns €4.4m in 2015

Rugby legend Brian O’Driscoll’s earning power shows no sign of slowing down as accumulated profits at his firm last year soared to €4.4m.

O’Driscoll may no longer enjoy the healthy income from his playing contract with Ireland and Leinster but new accounts show that the rugby icon’s first full year of retirement from professional rugby was a very lucrative one.

Accounts just filed by his ODM & Promotions Ltd with the Companies Office show accumulated profits at the firm jumped by €784,173 to €4.4m.
