Cristiano Ronaldo has demanded Juventus pay him an outstanding €19.9million (£17m) payment after consulting his lawyers on the issue.
The demand comes after the Portuguese superstar ended his relationship with Manchester United by mutual consent earlier this month, following his bombshell interview with Piers Morgan. However, any decision on a new club is unlikely to be swift as he has switched fully to international mode and is aiming to break multiple different World Cup records.
Leading European clubs have distanced themselves from a move including Real Madrid – where the striker is the all-time club record scorer – who have no interest in a sensational return for Ronaldo. Sporting Lisbon has also distanced itself from a Ronaldo return alongside Bayern Munich.
