High regard for the legend Cristiano Ronaldo

Word from Turin is that the club's top brass have already made up their minds: Ronaldo's name deserves a permanent place among the Bianconeri's all-time icons. In their eyes, the honour is nothing less than what a player of his magnitude warrants — a man who lit up the pitch in black and white like few before him ever have.

During his spell at the Allianz Stadium, the Portuguese talisman won over the fanbase with a mix of relentless professionalism and sheer scoring brilliance. The induction ceremony will take place right after he calls time on his professional career.

For the record, Ronaldo wore the Juventus shirt from 2018 to 2021, racking up 101 goals in 134 outings across all competitions. Along the way he collected two Serie A crowns, a Coppa Italia, a pair of Italian Super Cups, and a Serie A top scorer award for good measure.
