Juventus Still Misses Ronaldo

By db-admin

DBasia.news –  Cristiano Ronaldo has been away from Juventus for more than half a season. But his figure is still missed by the Bianconeri.

As is known, Ronaldo asked Juventus to release him ahead of the closing of the summer transfer market. However, he still has one year left on his contract.

Had been rumored to be close to Manchester City, Ronaldo finally returned to Manchester United. The transfer fee only touched 15 million euros.

After being left by Ronaldo, Juventus sent Moise Kean back on loan. But the presence of the 21-year-old player did not have much effect.

Juventus’ goal productivity has proven to decline after Ronaldo’s departure. This is clearly displayed in Serie A.

Juventus is now the club with the fewest goals in the top seven. The Old Lady can only collect 34 goals from 22 matches.

Matthijs de Ligt felt the longing for Ronaldo. He assesses Juventus is now more difficult to score goals without the presence of the megastar.

“Cristiano is the type of player who gets into the box and will always score goals. He rarely wastes chances and we’ve been missing him since the start of the season,” De Ligt told Sky Sport Italia.

“Now we don’t have a hitman who can score 30 goals per season.”

Even so, De Ligt believes Juventus can overcome Ronaldo’s departure. Massimiliano Allegri’s team is starting to show a revival in Serie A.

“We have to continue to develop gradually. We have won six of the last eight Serie A games and are on our way.”

“We need to score goals from everyone and from everywhere. It’s starting to happen now.”
