DBasia.news – Juventus are reportedly starting to consider selling their superstar, Cristiano Ronaldo. The main reason for the Bianconeri is not about winning the Champions League.
Juventus have made the Champions League their main target in recent seasons. Understandably, after achieving hegemony in domestic competition, Juve wanted to move up the class.
Juve has tried everything to achieve this target. Including by bringing Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid in July 2018. To be able to sign Ronaldo, Juve spent 117 million euros.
The choice of Ronaldo was not without long consideration. The Portugal international player was the backbone when Madrid won the Champions League for three consecutive seasons. Juve hopes that Ronaldo can provide his experience competing against the best clubs in Europe.
However, until now, Ronaldo has not been able to reach the target. This season, Juventus were eliminated by Porto in the top 16. Ronaldo’s best record with Juve in the Champions League is advancing to the quarter-finals.
Not surprisingly, many have made Ronaldo the black sheep. Many also think that Ronaldo’s time at Juventus is over.
The idea of selling Cristiano Ronaldo appeared
According to Italian transfer expert, Nicolo Schira, Juventus are considering selling Ronaldo. However, the main reason is not because he did not win the Champions League trophy.

In one season, Ronaldo earned 31 million euros. The former Manchester United player’s contract is still valid until June 2022.
David Beckham’s club, Inter Miami, is reportedly interested in accommodating Ronaldo. Inter Miami wants to pair Cristiano Ronaldo with Lionel Messi.
