Cristiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid ‘miss each other’, writes Marca Friday morning. The 36-year-old Juventus attacker regularly thinks about a possible return to the Santiago Bernabéu and that thought has only grown stronger after FC Porto’s elimination in the Champions League. According to TV program sports journalist Josep Pedrerol El Chiringuito has already had informal contact with Real Madrid, agent Jorge Mendes.
“They are no better than in 2018. Not Ronaldo and not Real Madrid,” writes Marca. The sports newspaper emphasizes that Ronaldo’s decision to the Royal to leave was ‘deliberate’ and with ‘mutual consent’. He made the switch to Turin for at least 100 million euros and a maximum of 112 million euros. A return is ‘in principle’ ruled out by Real Madrid, although that is not because the club does not want it. “Real Madrid realizes that the club was stronger when they were still walking side by side.”
According to Pedrerol, Mendes has had an ‘informal conversation’ with Real Madrid about a possible return of the five-time world footballer of the year. The conversation was intended to gauge what Real Madrid thinks about it. Ronaldo’s idea regularly pops up in the head. Not only does he know that Juventus has financial concerns due to the corona crisis, he also notices that the club’s performance in Serie A is below par. The reigning champion is ten points behind leader Internazionale, with a duel credit.

“In February 2018, internal struggles led to the departure of Zinedine Zidane and Ronaldo. With retroactive effect, this turned out not to be the best decision. CR7 starts to think about what he wants. A return to the club that gave him everything is a dream for the time being, but in football anything is possible “, said > Marca. With an annual salary of 31 million euros net, Ronaldo is the absolute big earner of Juventus and has a contract until mid-2022. In view of the corona crisis, a transfer seems worth considering for the club.
