The player and captain of Juventus Turin, referred to the departure of the Portuguese and how the club opened a project to rejuvenate the squad.
Giorgio Chiellini, captain of Juventus Turin, assured this Wednesday that Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo, his former teammate before his signing for Manchester United, “was thinking more about the present than the future.”
“(The signing of Cristiano) was important for the history of Juventus and will represent a moment of growth for our brand. Now Juventus is increasingly known worldwide. Players like him are so important that they have a different life, he could not even go for a walk in the center of Turin, “said Chiellini in an interview broadcast this Wednesday on Italian television” DAZN “.
“He had understood that he would leave the club, he wanted new motivations and a team that played for him. Here we opened a project to rejuvenate the staff and he thought more about the present than the future ”, he added.
“It would be better if it had come out earlier (at the beginning of the last market and not in the last days), because we had a little ‘shock’ that we paid at the level of points in the first matches,” he insisted.
The officiality of Cristiano’s departure came on the last day of the summer market and the Juventine club, who had played the first day with CR7, did not know how to win in the next three days of Serie A.
The Portuguese had signed for Juventus in 2018 from Real Madrid for 117 million euros and in Turin he won two league titles, an Italian Cup and a Super Cup. (D)
