Ronaldo is arguably the best player in the world but it is a risk paying such an amount for a player his age.

Are you aware that when juve purchased the services of cr7,their Share value increased.

Dear Laurent is is ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.

Football business analysts will agree with him.

Even Ronaldo himself confirm it during his first interview in Italy.

Ronaldo said " players of my age go to Qatar and China..., when this offer came I didn't have to think twice...

If Juventus had financed the Ronaldo transfer without the involvement of Fiat Chrysler Automobile, Juventus would have fallen short of the EUFA financial fair play except they sell some of their top players.

Juventus was initially contemplating selling Dybala and Pjanic for this purpose.
Ronaldo, for sure, won't be so strong in the next four years when his contract ends and won't be that utility player in Juventus as he was at Real.

De Laurentis was talking based on the 'plusvalence' point of view and he's ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.

RealDonaldTrump:
The man speaks the truth, but truth they say is bitter.
Ronaldo is actually a brand and not just a player.
Juventus signed the Ronaldo /CR7 brand.
His presence has already done much good to their shares.
They can make their return on investment in a year or two if things work out fine.

the share price today is the same as it was in Jan 2018 (aka 6 months ago).... without CR7, duh! so spending 200M one ONE player to get share price the same as 6 months prior IS a bad financial move, as stated by Napoli boss. hopefully when share prices quadruple, you can begin to talk of an achievement.

We know you don't like Cr7 but don't lie, after the purchase Juve shares rose by 11%, they have sold over €60M of his jersey even before start of season, Hey we are talking about 5 time Ballon d'or winner and 5 time UCL winner here.

The Napoli president is right to am extent and wrong to an extent.
I wouldn't pay that kind of amount on a player that is about calling it home with his footballing career.
To me, the price was somewhat too high knowing Ronaldo has roughly 2 to 3 seasons left in him before he starts declining except the Italian ''anti-old'' age elixir gets him working like he used to. Sven at that you can see that his speed is gradually reducing just like Messi.

ARRANT NONSENSE #1
if that was remotely the case, then the WHOLE league should pay for his salary, not just Juve.
so again, what he says is actually RIGHT, Ronaldo is NOT worth it.



ARRANT NONSENSE #2 and #3
how exactly?! so because Juve was foolish enough to pay such amount (and agreed to pay such salary) to a very old Ronaldo, this will help the Serie A, in what way? old players have been moving to Japan, then the US, then China/Russia for as long as we can remember, and it didnt help SHIIIIIT (but the team these players played for)....but even if it was, if thats the case then let the WHOLE league pay for him, duh?



ARRANT NONSENSE #4

the above doesnt even deserve an answer, its so narrow minded, as if this sole player can change anything... i guess the fact that he always had great players around him makes you think he can win a match against 11 footballer, just by himself, lol! check the WC for a confirmation that Ronaldo without the greatest teammates is RUBBISH....
you are just an overzealous fan, who will praise Ronaldo whether he does right or wrong.



SAME ARRANT NONSENSE as #2 and #3



ARRANT NONSENSE #5
... if he manages to win the CHAMPIONS LEAGUE with Juve, then yes he will... other than that, winning the Serie A or even being finalist in the CL, would be a WASTE OF MONEY

bro, use your brain instead of writing rubbish...i think CR7, Messi, Neymar, Mbappe and many other are FANTASTIC PLAYERS but i am sorry to say that a player over 33yrs old is certainly NOT worth the money, and only time can prove this wrong. any CR7 fan who today says that he will indeed win the CL with Juve (as this is the only thing that would make Juve recoup their investment) is a damn dreamer driven by football fanaticism.

again, the shares of Juves in jan 2018 were at exactly the same price they are today....and just because they fell in between to rise back to where they were in jan 2018 (aka before Cr7) is irrelevant.

Yes CR7 has won trophies (just like many others) does that mean he should receive the same outrageous salary until he cant even walk?!

so again, the Napoli boss just stated a DAMN fact, that paying 200M for the services of Cr7 for 4 yrs is not worth it.

as for the sale of his jersey, you must have very little knowledge of how much it cost to manufacture jerseys, lol!

ask yourself this simple question..... do you really think that many top European teams, in BETTER championship, couldnt afford to pay for his services?! many could but they know it was bad biz to spend so much on an old player like CR7.

if he gives them 40 goals per season, then its a good deal, madrid spent same amount way back, let the end justify the means.

ARRANT NONSENSE!!!!
again, they won the serie A this year without the need of CR7, so unless they win the CL, his coming to Juve would be a waste of money, even if they get to the final of the CL, like they did last year, duh!

so cr7 can score 1000 goals for Juve and it would be WORTHLESS unless they start winning valuable trophies again that they havent won lately (aka winning the Champions league and its amazing financial rewards)

Madrid spent that much and SOLD HIM for more than they paid for him (9 yrs later), so it was a great deal for Madrid... along with all the CL they won, they recouped their investment many times over

going by your statement neymar deal was nt worth the price, my brother before a club goes into such expensive deals feasibility studies have been carried out, and if no income is expected it is cancelled, juventus have done theirs,
Ronaldo can still be sold to the chinese league in 2years to recoup more than half the price, just like madrid did, let posterity be the judge.

It doesn't matter. The point is that Juve will make money off him and that, my friends, is the only THING that matters.
His Jerseys will sell like wildfire. Juve will also get more viewers/fans which equals more revenue. Ronaldo is worth the fee and more.

We shall know when the stats on shirt sales etc are out. Or the stats on Ronaldo’s financial influence are out. For now, I think it was an ill-advised purchase. CR7 can only operate at the top level for 1 more year.

1 year as usual, but he keeps proving u guys wrong over and over again, he has shown the world that a 33yr old can win the world best award, so never write him off.

Neymar/Mbappe are young, cr7 is NOT.... this is an expensive gamble, like Napoli boss said, and only time will tell. yes, he could possibly go to a Chinese/US team later but none of these teams will pay anywhere near what Juve paid, especially if he is a big flop and they dont win the CL.

lets be honest here, winning the serie A would be a rubbish achievement that Juve already got without paying 200M for an overrated player.

you see, the above is clear misplaced FANATICISM without thinking... you think that cr7 can win the CL with any team, any teammate, lol!

again, i seriously doubt Juve will go far in the CL, especially after Buffon left....but hey, i stand to be corrected.

as if buffon was their main pillar in the UCL charge, when the defenders makes sure he faces less shots per game, like i said i will quote you by april next year to that effect,
lets just agree to disagree

bwaaaaaaah, what a funny quote!!!! yet you think that CR7 could have scored as much goal with Madrid (or Man Utd) without the help of all his great teammates who made fantastic passes/crosses to him?! come on bro!

you are right, time will tell!

btw: i am a PSG fan, and i also believe the price that was paid for Neymar is way too much, and the same rubbish gamble as the above one. the difference is just their age.
Re: Cristiano Ronaldo 'A Waste Of Money'- Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis by Badgers14: 11:59pm On Jul 30, 2018
€75m on Higuain was the waste of money.

Although I don't like the spending too much money for one player but the Ronaldo deal is a somewhat good business move for Juventus. But Juventus need to market the hec out of Ronaldo in his first 2 years.
