Juventus React To Ronaldo Exit Rumours

Juventus Sporting Director Fabio Paratici has insisted that five-time Ballon d’Or winner, Cristiano Ronaldo, will not be leaving the Serie A champions anytime soon.

Naija News understands that there have been rumours that Ronaldo who joined Juventus from Real Madrid in a €112 million (£100m/$128m) transfer could leave Turin.

Asked about Ronaldo – who scored his 700th competitive goal in Portugal’s 2-1 Euro 2020 qualifying defeat to Ukraine on Monday  – Paratici said he expects the 34-year-old to see out his deal.

The Juventus boss dismissed the possibility of the veteran forward leaving Juventus before his contract expires.

“He is very focused on his current objectives, I do not believe in the slightest that he will leave at the end of the season or later,” Paratici said.

“He is under contract: we are very happy with him and he is happy at Juventus.”
