I don't think signing Ronaldo is a risk at all. He still has a good five years in him, guarantees goals and will attract world attention for Juventus. Magnificent coup for them, if they can get it done.

Sky Sport Italia just reporting from a spanish source (Don Balon), Cristiano is definetly leaving Madrid, not for Juve, direction Manchester United.
Well... until Di Marzio says something sure about this saga, anything can happen.

Don Balon is absolute guff.
Don Balon are not a source, they are storytellers that make shit up for fun
All Juventus stewards and stewardesses have been called to work at the stadium this weekend .

Darmian's grand unveiling 
It's explained by the extraordinary phenomena which was the Barcelona of Xavi/Iniesta/Messi.
Time to get my muppet on!Romero Agresti (Tier 1 for Juve) saying that Ronaldo and Juve have an agreement in place and the transfer is close (waiting for the green light from Perez). Looks like it's actually going to happen.
Put it this way if we dont sign Ronaldo we better have the dogs bollocks of a LB and CB done by August otherwise they'll be riots
They always have to throw a twist in there to keep the hype train rolling. I don’t believe it.
Don't forgot RW.
This. If we don't do this and not strengthen other needed areas I will be mad
If he moves , Sanchez coup in January will look like a Meh deal for us. Also it could be bad for us in our bid to pursue Sandro.
Knowing United's luck, he'd come back here and be utter cack.
Probably best he goes to new pastures.

Juve will give him the leagues
He will give them the CL
He will give them the CL
I don't think so personally.
Don't think he would be (he's too professional to be awful) but just mean with our misfire rate with big signings.
These posts scream self entitlement to be honest.
If Ronaldo wanted to come to us he would do so feck him, this transfer doesn't affect us in any way.
For the past 9 years, every time Ronaldo supposedly wanted to leave we were the favourites to sign him. Now, when it seems like he definitely is leaving, we're nowhere to be seen?
What's happened to our club? One of the top 5 players in the world is available and we're too busy signing Lee Grant.
Is Ronaldo the best player in the world? No. Can he still contribute to this United team? Definitely. So why on earth are we not in for him. £100 million is nothing for a player like him in this current era of inflated transfers.
Would be an absolute joke if we don't even attempt to go for him.

So he’s had a bad season then?
He scored 16 in 22 then ended the season on 44 including goals against Barce, Ath Madrid, Valencia, Sevilla, Spurs, Dortmund, PSG, Bayern and Juve. He’s basically scored in almost every big game of the season except the final.
This. I don't understand how we could splash all that cash on Alexis, but we're not even attempting to get Ronaldo.
That's upon us, totally. We have been using square pegs in round holes since long in the name of Change in Philosophy or style of play.
It would be weird after all these years of him using us as a way to get an improved contract, and of people pining for his return, to see him given the green light to leave Madrid and not come to Manchester. Think he'd do very well for himself in Italy, though.
If he turns us down then yes, but it seems we're not even interested which is utter madness
By the way Agresti is super reliable for Juve news. He's tier 1.
Is this allowed? And if so how is it allowed?
4 years ? That looks too much of a contract for a 33 years old, even if he's Ronaldo.
Would love to see him waiting 2 min for Darmian to make an overlap run just to witness him hoofing it into the roof.
I'm a more credible source than Don Balon.
People keep mentioning his age which is baffling to me . He is more fitter than Giggs , Scholes or Vandersar ever were. It's a steal.
It would be further proof of our decline and the joke status we have in the transfer market from getting used and abused by players like Ronaldo, Ramos and even Fellaini for new contracts to having to pay over the odds for players like Sanchez(salary wise) and Lukaku.
Yeah. I agree to this for no reason.
No it's not baffling. He can give 2 years at max peak imo but giving a 4 years contract till he reach 37 with such wage salary it's a massive gamble. He'll keep his body fit, but there's no guarantee that he'll be still scoring 40 goals a season at 37.
betfair exchange have juventus and real neck and neck for him to stay or leave. 1.2 Real/1.21 Juve. Safe to say hes on the verge.
Those bosman deals by Juve. Finally paying off. Meh
By what metric are you measuring his fitness compared to the others at the same age? This post doesn't make sense.
Honestly shocked that this has got legs.
Insane decision by Juventus given his age and the cost. Madrid once again showing their ruthlessness, time and time again they move on their ageing legends instead of letting the club become a retirement home.
