It's not Italian media this time, but the New York Times. A truly garbage click bait hit piece. The Times' standard of journalism is in the gutter these days.

Things to note:
1. The ICC has multiple tour locations, and Juve have been on the US tour for the last 2 seasons, making a change in location quite logical.
2. According to the article itself, the decision was made by the ICC, not by Ronaldo or Juventus
3. Juve do not always tour the US for the preseason. They toured Australia in 2016, the rest of Europe in 2015, East Asia and Australia in 2014.
4. Ronaldo has missed plenty of pre season tours in the past, including to the US.
5. It makes sense for Ronaldo not to tour the US until the case is concluded, not just for legal reasons, but also to avoid negative publicity. It does not mean he is either guilty or innocent.
