Italian Serie A giants Juventus’ star striker Cristiano Ronaldo’s agent Jorge Mendes has confirmed that his client will stay at the club next season.
There were reports in the Portuguese media which suggested that the former Manchester United striker might leave the Turin-based outfit at the end of the ongoing campaign.
However, Mendes, while talking to Sport Mediaset cited by Calciomercato.com, reassured fans that the 34-year-old will stay with the Turin-based outfit next season.
"Cristiano is the best player in the history of world football,” he said. “Juve? Yes, he will be at Juve next year.”
There were some reports of rift between Ronaldo and manager Maurizio Sarri as he was substituted twice before the previous international break.
But Mendes denied those rumours by claiming that his client is happy to work with the former Chelsea manager. “How is he with Sarri? He is happy,” said Mendes.
Ronaldo has joined Juve from Spanish La Liga giants Real Madrid in the summer of 2018 for a reported transfer fee of €117 million.
Since then, the versatile striker has score 35 goals in just 59 appearances in all competition for the Old Lady.

Ronaldo will leave a better legacy than Messi and that's a fact. By the time his career is done. He'll be a United legend, a Real legend, a Juve legend and most importantly a Portugal legend.

Even though I'm a Messi and Barcelona fan, I want CR7 to achieve great things at Juventus. We are witnessing an era wont wont ever see again. Love both GOAT's. LM10 CR7

Messi champions league = 4 CR7= 5 Messi major international titles are none (Olympic medal doesn’t count) =0 CR7= 2 major international titles (EURO CUP) What is the purpose of a good individual player when he cannot even bring trophies and glory to his club without the help of his other world class teammates. Messi needs insists and xavi and his perfect Barca squad to win something however Ronaldo needs himself he alone can win top honors without always needing his team that’s the difference.

I am afraid that he will end up with no UCL with Juve especially when Sarri is coaching them. And I believe they are not playing the game that is required to bask in UCL glory. May be they don't have the right players to win it. Above all the league which is fast becoming an old age home for old players. All the big clubs are after the old and experienced. The games are not played with high pace.......... No offence; this is just my humble opinion.

I think Ronaldo should just come to Manchester and finish his career. He already proved for us who he is.
