Cristiano Ronaldo has refused to wear a special Serie A badge awarded to him for winning Player of the Season last year with Juventus, in a sign of respect to his club teammates.
As reported by Marca, Serie A have introduced an initiative to recognize the efforts of the league's best players by awarding them with special badges that are worn on their match day kits the following season.
Serie A has left it to the respective award winners to decide whether to have their badges adorned on their jerseys.
But, Ronaldo has refused to have his badge placed on the famous Juve kit, with it being reported that the 34-year-old doesn't want to be seen as superior to his teammates.
Ronaldo will now join his Portuguese teammates for their upcoming Euro 2020 qualifiers as the UEFA Nations League champions face Serbia and Lithuania in Group B.
