DBasia.news – Cristiano Ronaldo just has his first season with Juventus. However, the superstar might return to Sporting Lisbon if someday he leaves Juventus.

Cristiano Ronaldo made a big leap in his career when deciding to leave Real Madrid. Ronaldo joined Juventus during the 2018 summer transfer market.

No wonder, Cristiano Ronaldo has played with Real Madrid for 9 seasons. Moreover, the captain of Portugal national team is 33, a bit old for a football player.

Juventus are his fourth club. Starting his career in Sporting, Ronaldo once became the player of Manchester United and Real Madrid.

Asked about the chance returning to Sporting, Ronaldo answered diplomatically. He compared his situation with his former teammate, Nani.

“Will I go back to Sporting like Nani? In football, you never know. Everyone in Turin welcomed me in a fantastic way,” he said.

“I don’t know when my career will end, but I’m fine and I want to keep going for many more years,” Cristiano Ronaldo continued.

Cristiano Ronaldo signed the five-year contract with Juventus. With the Italian giant, Ronaldo got 30 million euro (Rp485 billion) annual salary.

It means Sporting could have Ronaldo once his contract ends. It means he would be closer to the retirement period if returning to his former club.
