Cristiano Ronaldo is staying at
Juventus, new Football Director Federico Cherubini told a press
conference at the Allianz Stadium Thursday.
The 36-year-old Portugal great had been linked to a move from
Turin but Cherubini said "there is no signal of a transfer: no
signal on his part and neither on Juventus's part".
He said "we're talking about a player that scored 36 goals just
last year.
"The numbers don't tell everything but they hide many truths: we
are extremely happy that he will join the squad when he has
finished his period of holiday".
Ronaldo had been linked to several top European clubs, most
recently PSG, after failing to help secure top European
silverware for the Bianconeri for the second year running, the
hunt for Champions League glory being the main reason he was
lured to Turin from Real Madrid.
Ronaldo is currently on holiday having failed to lead reigning
champions Portugal past their last 16 Euros clash with Belgium.
