Juventus maintain that Cristiano Ronaldo will stay at the club beyond the 2020/21 season, irrespective of whether the Bianconeri are in the Champions League or not, yet it appears as though the rest of the squad are growing frustrated with the veteran forward.
Ronaldo's goals haven't dried up this term - he has been as productive as you would expect - but the team has fallen short of expectations in Serie A, failing to win the title for the first time in a decade.
La Gazzetta dello Sport reported on Friday that the relationship between the former Manchester United star and his teammates is virtually non-existent, and that this problem is worsening by the day.
Ronaldo missed training on Monday with permission from the club, however he was then involved in a promotional event with Ferrari's Formula 1 team on the same day. It is worth noting that Juventus CEO John Elkann and club president Andrea Agnelli were present at the event.
He was pictured smiling as he purchased a limited edition Ferrari vehicle for around 1.6 million euros, but the fact that Juventus lost 3-0 to AC Milan just a few days ago didn't seem to bother him, which has riled teammates.
Juventus have to find a way to move forward in a difficult financial climate, yet with a lack of Champions League revenue and the potential fine for being part of the failed Super League project, the Portuguese star's 31 milion euro annual net salary is incredibly problematic.

Juve squad is frUsTRatEd, yet no comment from anyone at juve is in the article. You said it yourself 'Ronaldo missed training with permission from the club, however he was then involved in a promotional event with Ferrari's Formula 1 team on the same day'. No need for the "however" THAT WAS WHY HE GOT PERMISSION TO MISS TRAINING FOR GOD'S SAKE. MUST RONALDO RECIEVE BACKLASH FOR EVERY SINGLE THING???

What's the use of this article when you clearly said that he took permission from the club. Is this app running out of articles to write or you just don't like Ronaldo

You said he took permission from the club. You also said the club president and one other official was there... Then why the yeye caption? Ronaldo has done his part this season by providing the goals. If his teammates had done theirs, Juventus won't be where they are now. The other players should better grow up. McKenzie has done well for himself too

I’m a Messi fan but I swear the way Jeventus treats Ronaldo is annoying. This guy scores goal and He’s still productive better than all their players but they still look for ways to find faults in what he does. I wonder who they would be blaming if Ronaldo wasn’t there! Ronaldo missed one day of training so what. And besides he asked for permission from the club to take that one day off, so whatever he does with that one day shouldn’t be their problem🤦🏽♂️.

He won the scudetto...he has been doing lot by himself not failing to score en save his team countless tyms no matter how stagnant the juve squad is...if the rest of the team put half the effort that he does..they would really achieve alot en nowadays if he is not on the team or doesnt score..they dont win...Even u watch Juve games he usually has to come up to midfield for the ball en move with it forward...hes lyk he is alone but still he continues to push hez the topscorer en within 2 seasons he has already reached 100goals for juventus surprisingly the same number as Dybala who has been at the club for a long tym...even if the team fails him..he continues to break records other players can only dream of en mind u hes 36years old...plz av some respect for CR7 ...him en Messi r the 2 greats who av really entertained us for 20years at their own level of greatness different from the others...Respect bro respect

And yet juve is struggling for top 4 while Lukaku has won the league a week ago? What is the essence of hard-working off the pitch because of promotional adverts while you lazily roam roam opponents box 18 waiting for passes and pk?
