In case you didn’t know…
Ronaldo joined Juve for a fee of €117 million after spending nine seasons with Real Madrid. Ronaldo left the Madrid club after guiding them to three consecutive Champions League titles.
Ronaldo is expected to score a goal in every game, and every time he fails to do so it becomes a talking point in the football fraternity.
The heart of the matter
Speaking at the press conference before their fourth game in Serie A, Allegri said:
Allegri even believes that Ronaldo should pip the likes of Luka Modric and Mohamed Salah to bad the FIFA Men’s Best Player award:
Even if Ronaldo has not scored a single goal for the club, his performance has been quite impressive. It took Ronaldo 28 shots to score his first league goal for Real Madrid in 2017/18 and at the end of the season, he had 26 goals in 27 games in the league.
What’s next?
Ronaldo scored a spectacular bicycle kick goal against Juventus in Champions League last season to which Juventus fans applauded the Portuguese with a standing ovation. Juventus fans will hope that Ronaldo finally opens his account for the club in the 4th round of Serie A before the Champions League begins.
It is to be seen if Ronaldo can meet the expectation of his manager by breaking his duck for Juventus.
