Ups.
that and the fact that all the rest being equal it probably Juve makes sense for Ronaldo at this stage and not sure that Perez was planning for him to go to any major European team anyway
Imagine being Napoli, Roma or the Milans. Why even bother next season?
8, 9 maybe 10 in a row for Juventus.

That's because you support Man United. Plenty of neutrals that will need a new team after the world cup.
Juve definitely makes more sense for CR7. Won in England, Spain & in Italy? Definitely will be the GOAT along with his international trophy.
Would not be surpised if this is a calculated move with regards to Ronaldos GOAT «strategy». Move to Serie A where Juventus has the monopoly on the title and work towards top goalscorer as well. Winning the league and top goal scorer in the three major leagues will not hurt his case. Juventus is of course also a solid contender for the CL.
Do not think he is considering anything else, if he wanted a return to Old Trafford, Woodward would easily make that happen.

according to La Stampa Florentino is unhappy with how Cris and Mendes are managing the situation and now he asks for 150, that could be 130 after negotiating. Juve still optimistic
Signing for Juventus Turin means an automatic Seria A title so it's worthless. Only the CL matters.
This will never be quick and without drama. FFS its Ronaldo and Real Madrid we are talking about
Irrespective, he’d have won in 3 different countries. Also, has won the CL in 2 different countries.
The fees to get Ronaldo are astronomical.
With the odd exception (like Higuain who was signed with Pogba money) Juventus don't seem to be one to compete with Madrid, Barca and the Manchester clubs financially. They've also lost players & transfer targets before for not wanting to over spend.
I also didn't see Ronaldo being interested in the Italian league as it isn't overly attacking. Or talent stacked. Or interesting
Actually it's surely a new contract ploy.
Excactly, they left only a year ago, they were also part of all this briht Madrid era. In fact they were here the last season when Madrid won 5 of the 6 tournaments they played. But still some people here try to say its all thanks to Ronaldo. Hahaha.
Its not underrating him saying that. You only have to compare his numbers with Madrid and with Portugal. Even if you compare his numbers when he was in one of the best Manchester Utd teams in history, his best season numbers are similar if not worse to this last season numbers where he disappeared frm August to February. So yes, playing in this team makes you look better as Messi looks mich better with Barca than in Argentina.
And man, you can't be serious comparing Douglas Costa, Dybala and Pjanic with Modric, Kross, Marcelo, Isco, etc, right?
NO. Real Madrid still were KOd in th R16 in Ronaldo's first sason there. Madrid started to get into finals since Mourinho took the team and changed their mentallity. And getting not only Ronaldo, but also Benzema, Di Maria, Ozil, Alonso, Carvajal, Modric, Khedira, etc helps right?
So let's be realistic. You say that without Ronaldo Madrid wouldn't have won the UCL so often this years. Yes, it is true, as it is with some other players like Ramos.
Without Ramos two goals vs Bayern in semifinals and his goal at the 93th minute in the final (a game that Ronaldo totally disappeared, as in 3 of the 4 UCL finals Madrid has won recently...) Madrid wouldn't had won it, and maybe not the next ones.
Or la Liga in 2017 that Madrid won (1 of the 2 that Ronaldo has won in this last 9 years) Ramos 5 goals in the last 10 minutes of tied games traduced in 15 points for Madrid literally.
And what about Modric? Without Modric Ronaldo won 1 Liga and 1 Copa del Rey in 4 seasons. Since Modric is a starter in Madrid, they have won 4 UCLs in 5 years. Same with Bale and he has scored in the 2 UCl finals he has started, and in the Cup Final he started just the same. So is clear its not thanks to Ronaldo only.
Ronaldo IS NOT the one that wanted to leave Madrid, his family is happy there knows there is no other team in the world he can be winning the Ballon D'or every year. Madrid is the one that didn't waed to pay him as much as Messi or Neymar win, and also Florentino is the one that told him that if he brings an offer of 100M Euros, he can leave despite having contract till 2021 and a 1000M release clause. I think that speaks a lot about Madrid wanting him to stay.
Madrid still can get any player they want if they really want him. With Mbappe its not that he preffered PSG and Madrid couldn't do anything to stop that. Madrid offered him a place in the bench because of his age and he would have to fight for a place in the starting 11 vs Benzema and Bale (starters) and Isco, Asensio and Vazquez in the bench. In PSG he would get there as a superstar, with superstar wages and would play all the games as a starter.
If Madrid offered him a place as a starter and pay him as that and not as a bench player, he would have gone to Madrid.
Of course we will, be sure of that...
Winning 2 Ligas in 9 years doesn't makes you a worse team that Barca wehn you have won 4 UCLs in that hears vs Barca's 2. It only shows that Barca can be more consistent along the season while Madrid gets overconfident and ties or loses games vs small teams.
Where you really show how good you can be is in the UCL, playing vs the ebst teams in the world, in 2 game knockout tiew where you have to play your best to win.
All 4 Real Madrid UCLs of the recent years are totally deserved.
AM last minute draw was totally deserved, ATM scored because Casillas had a brainfart and then Madrid destroed them all the game, while Courtois was the best player of the game, but it seems to me that you didn't even watched that match or you would have known that.
Then you talk about the shameful referee vs Bayern, really? The Bayern myth made by the people that hate Madrid... in the first leg of that game, the referee awarded Bayern a penalty that clearly wasn't. In the 2nd game the referee had to red card Vidal since the 2nd minute lf the game, and then again when the 2nd time started (you can see the highlights lf that game in youtube), he played for free all that game but antiMadrid guys only say that Casemiro should be also red carded just before the extra time where Ronald scored the offside goal.
Then you remember that the extra time was only played thanks to the referee, because the Bayern goal that tied the game, was a clear Lewandowski offside. But then again you don't talk about that right? With the VAR, that game would never had hot tonthe extra time...
Madrid in all that UCLs sent out 3 times ATL after they sent out Barca. They also sent out twisce Juve just before they also sent put Barca. And they sent out Bayern 3 times, in twice of them they scored them 5 goals...
Flo should seriously try to get Douglas Costa included in the deal. He's exactly the type of player we need
Wildly inconsistent, one footed who runs down blind alleys is the type of player you need?
He's too inconsistent. I think him and Ronaldo will love playing next to eachother though.
He's put up an excellent first season at Bayern and was consistently juventus best player in the second half of this. He's inconsistent, but not so much it'd be an issue i think. Similar to Di Maria.
And yes Cristiano would love playing with him. Pacey, tricky dribbler, almost unstoppable in space, devastating in 1vs1, good cross...he's sorta like a more limited version of Di Maria. On a good night he's unplayable. We seriously need that kind of player who can blow defences open by himself and put the fear of god on opposing teams on the counter
Ronaldo was a key player for those UCLs wins. But he wasn't the only one. Ramos, Modric and Marcelo were as important in my opinion. For example, this UCL he did very well, until the semis. He was nowhere to be seen in both legs against Bayern nor in the final with Liverpool. In those 3 games Madrid scored 7 goals, he scored none, he assist none. Benzema scored 3, Bale 2, Asensio 1 and Marcelo 1.
So saying Ronaldo won this UCL alone is false. But saying that Madrid would have not win this UCL without him is probably true, considering he scored 6 goals against PSG and Juventus.
With how good Lukaku was at right-wing today for Belgium, there's argument for signing Ronaldo as our main centre forward to play alongside him.
You've been having Mbappe dreams haven't you?
Yes please.
Could be done. Lukaku does like to drop back at times. In all fairness, if we got Ronaldo, him and Lukaku could keep switching between RW and ST throughout the game and confuse the heck out of opponents. Two awesome aerial threats as well, so likely to score if both of them are in the box at once.
Putting a target man there would ruin his game. It works because he’s the main striker occupying two centrebacks and a left back. His movement out there allows two AMs to run at the centrebacks and for him to ghost across the lines.
You put a target man there and he’s just a good wide forward.
All positive signals for Ronaldo to Juventus.
Marotta & Paratici are waiting for documents from Jorge Mendes to close the deal.
Perez will honour his verbal agreement to allow Ronaldo to leave for €100m.
Ronaldo is currently in Greece, plane on standby to take him to Turin.
I honestly think that Lukaku could be a Benzema type player if Ronaldo ever came to us. A more clinical Benzema anyway.
Ronaldo plays more as the AM you describe (only prolific) than a target man anyway doesn't he?
You don't know the half of it
Ronaldo to Juventus would be a great move. Imagine him winning everything in top 3 leagues, perhaps even CL in 3 different team, and probably Ballon D'or in 3 different teams (if he win the CL with Juventus, which is possible). Not to mention the slow Serie A would be perfect place to prolong his career for few more years at least. (I could see him scoring 40 goals for Juventus even when he reached 38 or 40).
Yes he can also do that in Real, but probably easier and longer in Juventus, and greater claim to GOAT if he does all that too in Italy.
Come think of it, At the age of 33, he still record as the 2nd fastest player in WC? (4 goals in 4 games), and scoring a lot of goals for Real (44 goals in 44 games)? That's total 48 goals in 48 competitive games, still the best player in the world. So even at age of 38 or 40, he will do fine in Italy I reckon.

It looked a bit serious, but its probably a ploy. Juventus being used this time.
I don't think Serie A is slower than La Liga, and btw the spanish defences are generally way more unprepared than the italian ones by a tactical point of view.
Interesting
As expected really, would of been surprised if he didn't get in touch with us. Hope we bite.
She isn't reliable at all.
She has a blue tick though. Life doesn't get more legit than that.
Was she the "Pogba to Real" lady when that saga was going on?
She knows absolutely nothing. Just a fangirl who pretends to be ITK
All the reliable sources say it’s pretty much done, there are only some disagreements over the Madrid send off. Perez will want to spin this in a way that suits him.
Yes and she fooled Arsenal fans into thinking Benzema was on his way to London for a medical a few years ago.
