What we know so far
The 36-year-old striker joined Juventus for 120 million euros in 2018. His contract with Juventus with an annual salary of 30 million euros expires in June 2022.
According to Spanish media, Ronaldo manager Jorge Mendes has discussed with Real Madrid his return to the Santiago Bernabeu. A scenario which, at this time, should hardly be imaginable.
Ronaldo costs Juventus 87 million euros a year: 58 million salary plus another 29 million euros depreciation, which is also the minimum sale price.
On Saturday, Ronaldo broke the silence after the elimination of Juventus from the Champions League, but did not give any sign for the future.
“History cannot be hidden, it is written every day with consistency, team spirit and a lot of hard work. Those who do not understand this will never achieve glory and success,” Ronaldo wrote on social media.
Andrea Pirlo and Zinedine Zidane have also spoken about Ronaldo, but without mentioning his future.
“Here he wrote history. He is magnificent. Now he is a Juventus player and I can not say anything about the things they say.” said Real Madrid coach Zidane.
“It is natural that there are rumors after the elimination, because he is one of the most important players in the world along with Lionel Messi. He has always played well for us, scoring goals and proving his worth,” Pirlo said on Saturday.
