Image
Former Juventus president, Giovanni Cobolli Gigli, has said the club made a mistake by signing Cristiano Ronaldo. Gigli also claimed Ronaldo is hindering the club’s efforts to win back the Serie A title and wants him sold before the summer transfer window closes. Ronaldo joined Juve from Real Madrid in a €100million transfer before the 2018/2019 campaign. The 36-year-old is now into the final year of his contract. But Gigli, who was Juve’s president between 2006 and 2009, told SerieANews: “I’ve always been honest: signing Ronaldo was a mistake.

That is, with intelligence and when the game is in progress. “Ronaldo hampers Juventus’ attack. Without him, they can do excellent things in collect...
