Is Cristiano Ronaldo joining Juventus?
By Football Italia staff
The rumours of Juventus talks for Cristiano Ronaldo are gathering steam, particularly in Spain, claiming Real Madrid would release him for €100-120m.
The story first emerged in Tuttosport over the weekend and were largely mocked at the time, but the Spanish media are giving it genuine credence.
His future is indeed in doubt, as in his post-match interview after a third consecutive Champions League victory, his words were: “It has been nice playing for Real Madrid.”
Now Marca and As are confident there is an offer from the Bianconeri and it is under serious consideration.
After all, if Juve were selling players to drum up €150m for Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, why not buy the current Ballon d’Or for slightly less?
The main issue sounds like the report of a €30m per year salary, higher than the one offered to him right now by Real Madrid, but which Juve would pay for largely with sponsors.
The effect is already evident, because the Juventus shares have soared on the stock exchange over the last 24 hours and the club’s name is trending worldwide on Twitter.
Marca director Juan Ignacio Gallardo even spoke to Sky Sport Italia and said Real Madrid have an agreement CR7 can leave for €100-120m.
There is even a report in Romanews.eu that the Adidas HQ are already producing Cristiano Ronaldo Juventus jerseys with his Number 7.
Ronaldo has won the Champions League three times in a row with Real Madrid, so could be tempted to change the Bianconeri’s infamous bad luck in this competition, not winning since 1996, despite reaching several finals
