JUVENTUS insist Cristiano Ronaldo has not asked to leave this summer, dealing a blow to Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain.
Ronaldo, 36, has been strongly linked with a Turin exit three years after joining from Real Madrid.
The Italian giants finally lost their grip on the Serie A title to Juventus.
And with Ronnie having worked under three different bosses in as many years, it’s reckoned he is looking for a fresh start.
Former club Man United have been linked with a stunning transfer this summer.
That’s despite Ole Gunnar Solskjaer splashing out £73million on Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho today.
French outfit PSG are also thought to be interested as they look to reclaim their Ligue 1 crown from Lille.
And it’s believed Ronaldo is available for just £25m should there be any serious bids.
However. Juventus chief Federico Cherubini claims he is ‘happy’ with Ronnie’s presence at the club.
And Cherubini adds that the Portugal captain hasn’t even requested a transfer exit, meaning he’s likely to see out the final year of his contract in Italy.

Cherubini said: “We’ve currently received no signal from Ronaldo to leave the club this summer.
“Same from our side. We’re happy to have Cristiano back with us once the new season will start.”
Ronaldo has scored 101 goals in just 133 games for Juventus.
Should he stay put, Ronnie will be reunited with former boss Max Allegri, who is back at Juve as Andrea Pirlo’s replacement despite being sacked in 2019 for falling short in Europe.
