Was it wrong to buy Ronaldo? Never
Juventus number one, Andrea Agnelli, has defended the decision to buy Cristiano Ronaldo, insists that the five-time winner of the “Golden Ball” with his presence in Italy, has filled the coffers of other clubs.
CR7 is the highest paid player in Juve, almost twice as much as the second, third and so on player.
However, with him on the squad, Juve never reached at least the Champions League final, while CR7 is spending its third season in Turin.
“Wrong that we got Ronaldo? Never.” he told Corriere dello Sport.
“I would do it again tomorrow. Even Pirlo. Stability helps us grow in the future and invest in young players and coaches, even though it is a first experience.”
“We brought Cristiano to Italy and only his presence has guaranteed other clubs 4 million extra in their coffers.”
