Cristiano Ronaldo Signs New Record-Breaking Deal
The Portuguese Phenomenon Set to Stay at Juventus
Cristiano Ronaldo has just signed a new deal with Juventus, making it his third season with the Italian giants. Ronaldo had been linked with a move away from Juventus, but it’s now been confirmed that the 36-year-old Portuguese superstar has signed a new contract that will keep him at the Turin-based club until 2024.
The new deal, which is reportedly worth $50 million per season, makes Ronaldo the highest-paid player in the world. It is also the biggest contract ever signed by a footballer, eclipsing the $51 million deal Neymar signed with Paris Saint-Germain in 2017.
Reaction to the New Deal
Ronaldo’s new deal has been met with great excitement from Juventus fans. Ronaldo has been a fan-favorite since his arrival in 2018 and has since scored an incredible total of 102 goals in his 131 appearances for the club.
Juventus president Andrea Agnelli was also delighted with the new deal, saying: “We are delighted to have extended our relationship with Cristiano, who is an incredible footballer and a great ambassador for our club. He has been a fantastic addition to the team in the last three years and we look forward to continuing to work with him and help him reach new heights.”
What Does the Future Hold For Ronaldo?
With the new deal, Ronaldo will be looking to continue his impressive goalscoring record and to help Juventus win more trophies. After winning the Serie A title in his first two seasons in Italy, the Portuguese star will be hoping to add more silverware to his already impressive trophy cabinet.
Ronaldo will also be hoping to add to his impressive individual accolades. He is currently the all-time top goalscorer in the UEFA Champions League and the all-time top goalscorer for Portugal. Ronaldo’s new deal is a testament to his continued excellence and shows that he is still one of the best players in the world.
