Ronaldo's Reasons For Leaving Realmadrid To Juventus Revealed by pixey(m): 2:16pm On Sep 30, 2018 |
Real Madrid said goodbye to Cristiano Ronaldo in
July of this year, but the player's journey through
the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu exit doors began
in May of 2017.
His problems with the Spanish tax authorities kicked
off a series of discussions and decisions which
ultimately led him to Turin and to Juventus .
This is according a fresh report published by El
Mundo.
They reveal that Ronaldo held a meeting at the home
of his agent Jorge Mendes in May of 2017, with his
advisors in attendance.
"I said I didn't want any risks," Ronaldo told his
advisors, referring to the legal troubles that had been
caused by tax non-payments.
"I didn't study and the only thing I've done in my life is
play football, but I'm not stupid and I don't trust
anyone.
"That's why I always pay 30 percent more than is
requested when I hire an assessor.
"It's because I don't want problems."
Lawyer Carlos Osorio , who was at the meeting,
explained that he had been in charge of these fiscal
issues, but urged Ronaldo not to worry.
Some months later, when he had to make a pact with
the tax authorities, he became very angry.
"I never said not to pay taxes!" he exclaimed to his
advisors.
"I want to know what happened.
"I don't understand anything, as the taxes should be
paid by sponsors, so why do they accuse me?"
Having had to fork out payments to the Spanish tax
authorities, Ronaldo hoped that Real Madrid would
offer him an improved contract to soften the financial
hit, as he believed Barcelona had done with Lionel
Messi.
Yet the capital city club wanted to keep a distance
from Ronaldo and his legal issues, which he viewed as
a betrayal.
He also considered it a lack of respect that Messi was
earning double his wages and that Neymar had moved
ahead of him in the salary rankings after the
Brazilian's move to Paris Saint-Germain .
His anger became so much that Zinedine Zidane
reportedly spoke to the directors to ask them to solve
the issue, claiming that Ronaldo was discussing it too
much in the dressing room.
On top of all that, the Portuguese was also irritated by
the fact that Alfredo Di Stefano was continually
discussed ahead of him when it came to the topic of
Real Madrid 's best ever player.
"They always put me behind Di Stefano and I don't
know what more I have to do," he is believed to have
said.
In the end, the relationship with Real Madrid reached
a point where he decided to leave and to move on,
joining Juventus and beginning a new adventure in
Italy. |
