DBasia.news – Italy national team coach Roberto Mancini praises Cristiano Ronaldo’s decision to join Juventus. According to Mancini, Ronaldo was brave enough to take the risk of moving to Italy.
Ronaldo was surprisingly decided to leave Real Madrid during the 2018 summer transfer market. The Portugal captain chose Juventus as his new club.
The 33-year-old player is probably looking for a new challenge in Italy. No wonder, Ronaldo has defeated England by Manchester United and Spain by Real Madrid.
Mancini praises Ronaldo’s intention to Juventus. Mancini assumes Ronaldo is ready to be criticized for his move.
“Ronaldo? In the past, there were many champions in Serie A, all of them the best,” said Mancini to Sky Sport Italia.
“The thing to appreciate about Ronaldo is that he’s reopened himself to criticism. That’s important for a great champion like him,” Mancini continued.
Juventus broke the record of the most expensive transfer by buying Cristiano Ronaldo. La Vecchia Signora paid 100 million euro (Rp1,6 trillion) to Real Madrid for Ronaldo’s transfer.
