Cristiano Ronaldo is facing a new legal challenge, after recently filing a lawsuit against his former club Juventus. The Portuguese captain contends that Juventus owes him $21.2 million in unpaid wages. However, it appears that CR7 will encounter difficulties in recovering his money from the Bianconeri. In light of these developments, new details have emerged in the case.

Ronaldo moved to Juventus in 2018 ending his 9-year spell with Real Madrid, after his relationship with president Florentino Perez deteriorated. The enigmatic forward played 134 games scoring 101 goals for the Turin side, until he signed with Manchester United for a second stint in 2021.

A long road ahead for Cristiano Ronaldo

Things are currently not looking great for Ronaldo, who is at a crossroads with Juventus. In addition to focusing on his career in the Gulf, he now has another matter that needs his attention. The Italian giants are not ready to give up easily either. They have now brought new evidence to light which can further complicate things for Ronaldo, as per Tuttosport.

The Turin club argues that the pending wages of all the Juventus players were paid in full as they signed a personal agreement. It was only Ronaldo who didn’t sign the agreement and was thus not paid his remaining wages. The reason behind not signing the agreement remains unknown. Yet, without his signature and the company’s, there is no document that can support Ronaldo’s claim to his money.
