Cristiano Ronaldo is a luxury less and less possible for Juventus in the midst of the post-pandemic economic crisis. That has been known for a long time. But who wouldn’t want him in their ranks? There is already a possible candidate: Manchester United.
The recent statements by agent Mino Raiola would be the key to an operation that no one had thought of but that now seems viable: a barter between Cristiano and Paul Pogba.
Raiola, representative of the Frenchman, broke the relationship with Old Trafford and put his pupil at the starting gate, with Juventus as the only possible destination, at least for now. Why not, amid lack of money, cross scores and send the striker back to his beloved club and the midfielder to his longed-for Italy?
SunSport exclusively revealed that United bosses want Pogba to leave at a discounted price and they would not mind, despite the high salary, recovering a Portuguese who left in 2009 in exchange for 90 million euros to Real Madrid.
And according to The Independent’s football editor in chief Miguel Delaney, he could be back soon: “I’ve been doing something about the Paul Pogba situation, which is related to Ronaldo, and the fact that Juventus might be interested in a trade. It is not impossible”.
For Delaney, the one who does not fit into the new idea of Juventus is Cristiano: “Connected to all that was the opinion that, ultimately, Juventus is trying to install this collective idea of football. They tried with Sarri, now it They try Pirlo, but that’s almost impossible while Ronaldo is there, because the way he plays just doesn’t fit that collective approach. Obviously, that wasn’t a problem at all when he was at his peak, but now it means, even more. than ever, that Juventus have to play in a certain way for him. “
If the operation were to take place, it would mean the reunion of Colombian Juan Guillermo Cuadrado and Pogba, a friendship that was just consolidated in Juventus and that in the past brought the Frenchman on a trip to Cartagena with the Antioqueño and his family.
