Is It Time To Sell Cristiano Ronaldo? – Former Juve President Responds.
“Ronaldo was a wrong signing, absolutely,” the former Juventus President told Radio Punto Nuovo via Football Italia. ” I had said it on his very first day at Juventus. He is a great champion, but he is too expensive. Now it’s up to Juventus. They’ve been paying him €1m per goal. Agnelli must be self-critical, but he doesn’t have great collaborators. I don’t blame Pirlo. I hired Ferrara and it was not a positive experience. Agnelli took a risk with him. He didn’t want Sarri, but he accepted him because Paratici and Nedved had pushed to hire him. Juventus need to rebuild now.
” I’ve known Pavel as a great champion, but he is not capable of being the Juventus Vice-President. They should think again about his role within the club. He didn’t attend Allegri’s last press conference and I didn’t like that. I know they were not on good terms. He claimed he was abroad, but it’s true, he was in Italy. He doesn’t have the Juventus style. The club should free Ronaldo at the end of the season and the same goes for Paratici. Maybe Agnelli had promoted him to remove him from his position afterward. This could be the scenario.”
