Ronaldo news transfer: 5 factors suggest that the case of Juventus is close

Cristiano Ronaldo is in the process of finalizing a transfer of 88 million pounds ($ 116 million) from Real Madrid CF to Juventus FC, according to several reports.

The 33-year-old enjoyed a lavish form last season while he finished top scorer in the Champions League with 15 goals in 13 appearances. He then impressed playing for Portugal at the 2018 World Cup, and is ranked as one of the tournament's best players.

But now that Portugal has been eliminated from the World Cup, Ronaldo is free to focus on his future – and there are five factors that predict his future in Serie A with Juve, rather than Primera División with Real.

1. Ronaldo recently stated that Juventus was a club he had loved since he was a young boy.
2. His biographer says "in his head, Ronaldo is a Juventus player."
4. He would be looking for a property in Turin where Juventus plays his home games.
5. A former Juventus leader claims that the case is concluded.

Ronaldo declared his love for Juventus, Italy's biggest club, earlier this year – and it may have gone a little unnoticed at the time.

After all, Ronaldo had just scored one of the year 's goals by kicking in a knockout match in the Champions League in April. The shot ended up tearing the net and sending the crowd wild – even the Juventus fans cheered reluctantly realizing that they had witnessed something special.

It was an action that Ronaldo recognized and who was grateful to have addressed the Real Madrid media after the match, a match that Real had won 3-0. He reportedly said, according to MARCA: "For people to cheer me on at a stadium like that of Juventus, where they have had great players and where they have great players, it's a defining moment. "

Ronaldo then declared his love for the club. "I am very happy and excited because it has always been a club that I have loved since I was a little boy."

In his head, Ronaldo is now a player of Juventus, according to his biographer Guillem Balague, a prominent Spanish footballer who works for Sky Sports.

"In his head, Cristiano is a player of Juventus", Balague tweeted this week .

Although the Italian club has not yet made an official offer, the player's superstar agent, Jorge Mendes, is assured that we will make one. Balague added: "[Ronaldo] has never been so close to going."

Balague may claim that Real has not yet received an offer for Ronaldo, but the club would have already held meetings to discuss the player's exit strategy as he seems to be waiting for an offer of 116 million dollars.

MARCA reported on Thursday that three personalities – the real president Florentino Perez, his "right hand man" Jose Angel Sanchez, and Ronaldo's Mendes agent – met Wednesday night to discuss "the conditions for". a potential exit of Santiago Bernabeu "for Ronaldo.

Sanchez would accept nothing less than $ 116 million from Juventus – a price that Mendes is sure the Serie A champion can afford.

The player apparently being ready to sign a four-year contract at Juve, it makes sense that he is on the market to buy a new property, and the Spanish AS publication states that it is already shopping for a huge house in Turin. – The city Juventus plays its home games at.

If that were not enough, a former Juventus leader claims that the case is already concluded. "In my opinion, he has already signed and he had a medical examination [evaluation] with Juventus," said former general manager Luciano Moggi, according to the MARCA report.

MARCA then says that Moggi said that he had had discussions with "important people" who are aware of the situation.

Ronaldo joined Real Madrid in 2009 and forged an incredible legacy at the club. If he leaves Real, he will become the club's all-time leading scorer (450 goals out of 438 matches in all competitions) and one of the key players of a Champions League victorious race with four wins nine years.

Given its record, we understand why the agreement is already dubbed "the century's signature for Italian football".
