Cristiano Ronaldo to Juventus: Is this the clue Real Madrid star will complete transfer?
Ronaldo has been linked with a stunning move to Serie A, with Juventus appearing ready to break the bank to sign him. Ronaldo hinted at a Real Madrid departure after the Champions League final but was only ever expected to leave for either Manchester United or PSG. But Juventus have emerged as the big favourites for his signature this week after reports in Italy have claimed he could sign for £88m on a £26.5million-a-year deal. And reports this morning claimed Juventus are now confident of getting the deal. And bookmakers BetStars have priced Ronaldo at 4/6 odds-on to make the move to Italy.

BetStars Director of Trading Ian Marmion said: “Cristiano Ronaldo looks set to shock the football world and join Italian champions Juventus, with the Portuguese forward now odds-on at 4/6 to make Turin his next home. After his early exit from the World Cup, it appears the five-time Ballon d’Or winner is after a new challenge in Serie A. Juve’s odds of signing Ronaldo have been slashed, having been as long as 10/1 earlier in the week. “Former club Manchester United are also in the running for Ronaldo but they are way down the pecking order at 10/1, followed closely by PSG who are priced at 12/1. “Ronaldo could be swayed to follow in the footsteps of his old teammate, Wayne Rooney, and head for the US. Ronaldo to join any MLS club is priced at 16/1. Chelsea and Man City round up the betting at 20/1 and 33/1 respectively.” Ronaldo, 33, has been at Madrid for nine years but could call time on his stay at the Bernabeu. Real Madrid have denied moves are in place for Neymar and Kylian Mbappe this week in strange public denials.
