His contract with the Serie A champions expires in 2022 meaning he will still have at least three years at a top European club.
But TuttoSport have poured doubt on whether Ronaldo will see out his contract at Juventus because he ‘doesn’t have a romantic relationship’ with the Old Lady.
They have ruled out a big money move to China or America because Ronaldo still wants to challenge for major trophies.
Paris Saint-Germain remain an option, especially if and when Neymar and Kylian Mbappe leave the club.
Ronaldo, who has the physicality of a man ten years his junior, revealed it will be a psychological decision when he retires from football.
He told Marca: “Much will depend on what I feel, on my motivation.
“Physically it will never be a problem.
“I am treating myself well and I think can play safely up to 40 years.

“The most important factor, honestly, will be more psychological – that will be the one that makes the difference.
“In any case, everything has a beginning and an end. I won’t last a lifetime but I still feel strong enough to continue winning.
“I will stop if I have no incentives.”
