      Cristiano Ronaldo tipped to join Wolves in shock transfer from Juventus by Troy Deeney due ‘Portuguese connection’

      by

      CRISTIANO RONALDO has been tipped to join Wolves due to the ‘Portuguese connection’ in a shock prediction by Troy Deeney.
      The Watford legend and new SunSport columnist can see the 35-year-old star coming back to England after leaving Manchester United 11 years ago.

      Watford’s Troy Deeney made an interesting prediction during an entertaining co-hosting session on Talksport’s Drive show.

      This is how we could see Ronaldo slipping into the Wolves line-up if he was to make this shock move and the manager stuck with his tried and trusted 3-4-3

      But instead of making a return to Old Trafford, as some reports have suggested, Deeney sees Wolves as the likely destination because of the large number of fellow Portuguese players in the squad, along with the role of his agent Jorge Mendes.
      Co-hosting talkSPORT’s Drivetime show, he said on Ronaldo’s future: “I’d more look at a club like Wolves, with that Portugal connection. That would probably work.
      “I think whoever is getting him is still getting an unbelievable talent.
      “This season I think it’s six [goals] in four he’s already got in Serie A.

      “Obviously he’s had two weeks off with coronavirus and thankfully he’s back playing.
      “But I think you’re not going to get the same Ronaldo that you had at Man United. I think that’s always going to be the comparison.
      “You look at Gareth Bale for example now. He’s gone back to Tottenham Hotspur and you’re comparing him already to the one that left to go Madrid.”

      Manager Andrea Pirlo only pockets £1.6million-per-year after taking charge of the club
      Deeney, 32, also said that the financial incentives were worth thinking about as well.

      He added: “Obviously from a marketing perspective, he adds so much value to whatever club he goes to because shirt sales are going to go through the roof.
      “So, if he is available, I would be very surprised if it wasn’t a top 10 [club] trying to sign him in the Premier League.”
      It could be an exciting proposition for Ronaldo to link up with many of his international team-mates at club level.
      Portugal internationals in the Wolves team include Rui Patricio, Nelson Semedo, Ruben Neves, Joao Moutinho and Daniel Podence.
      Wolves’ manager, Nuno Espirito Santo, is also Portuguese, as is Ronaldo’s agent Mendes.

      The huge Portuguese representation in the squad almost backfired last month when Ronaldo’s positive coronavirus test sparked fears Wolves players could also be affected.
      Fortunately for the Premier League club, they all tested negative.
      Ronaldo has scored in both league games for Juventus since returning from his self-isolation.

      Cristiano Ronaldo ‘to be offered to PSG in sensational Neymar swap transfer with Man Utd also in for Juventus star’

      by

      JUVENTUS star Cristiano Ronaldo could reportedly head to Paris Saint-Germain next summer in a sensational swap deal with Neymar.
      The 35-year-old has been linked with a move away from the Old Lady with it said the Serie A side want to get him off the wage bill for financial reasons.

      Cristiano Ronaldo has scored six Serie A goals in just four games this season

      Paris Saint-Germain ace Neymar has two years left to run on his contract at Parc des Princes

      Ronaldo – who has a contract in Turin until 2022 – is believed to be on around £540,000-a-week, almost four times more than the club’s next highest paid player Matthijs de Ligt.
      Like the five-time Ballon d’Or winner, PSG forward Neymar – who earns over £600k-a-week in Paris – also has two year left on his contract.
      And despite Neymar pocketing a considerable amount more than the Real Madrid legend, it has been claimed that Juve would be open to bringing in the Brazilian.
      According to Tuttomercatoweb, PSG would have no trouble matching Ronaldo’s wage demands, while Juve wouldn’t rule out signing Neymar.

      However it looks unlikely that the deal will come to fruition given how Juventus are struggling for funds amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
      PSG sporting director Leonardo has talked up a move for Ronaldo should he decide to depart Italy.
      He told PSGTV: “Today in football we do not know what will happen.
      “Maybe tomorrow Cristiano Ronaldo wakes up and says I want to go play elsewhere.

      “Who can buy him? It’s a closed circle. PSG enters this circle. Usually it is about opportunities, situations.
      “The transfer window, we have to prepare for it and that’s what we do. We have our priorities, our lists, but something unforeseen can happen.”
      As well as PSG, it has been reported that Manchester United are in talks over a deal to bring him back to Old Trafford.
      And MLS side Inter Miami are also among the favourites to land the Portugal skipper who has scored six Serie A goals in four games this season.

      by

      GEORGINA RODRIGUEZ has once again flaunted her flawless body by sharing snaps of herself stretching on her yacht.
      The 26-year-old – who showed off her peachy bum on Tuesday after posting a video of her keeping fit in her home gym – constantly keeps her followers entertained on social media.

      Georgina Rodriguez took to her Instagram story to share pictures of herself on her yacht

      Rodriguez regularly updates her followers with saucy snaps of herself

      Cristiano Ronaldo’s stunning partner modelled a blue Alosoft gratitude bra and leggings as she tagged clothing brand Aloyoga in the pictures.
      Rodriguez – who boasts over 21.7 million followers on Instagram – posed in a number of positions onboard her yacht with a picturesque view of the sea in the background.
      She then shared a picture of her left leg up against a window as she gazed into the camera.
      On Tuesday, Rodriguez posted footage on social media of her doing squats as she held a kettle bell between her legs.

      The model recently left TV viewers stunned when she revealed herself to be the mystery woman disguised as a lion in the Spanish version of The Masked Singer.
      Rodriguez played the game right up to the last minute by staying with her disguise still on and her voice distorted by a computer.
      She said: “I really want you to see who I am because you’re still way off.”
      Giving hints of who she was with a tantalising video presentation, stated: “I like ham, but good ham.

      “Other pleasures of mine include seeing TV series from my favourite sofa and who knows, maybe one day I’m on the other side of the tele.”
      After the TV audience started chanting her name when she revealed her true identity, she added: “It’s been a great honour returning to my home country to take place in the first programme.
      “I love my country just like I love Iberian ham. I can’t believe how lost you were with all the clues I’d given you.”
      Asked by one of the TV panel if she was referring to one clue where she talked about how much in love she was, she added: “That as well because I’m very much in love and I’ve got a marvellous family.”

      Cristiano Ronaldo may have to settle for second top earner if he makes PSG transfer as club’s top five wages revealed

      CRISTIANO RONALDO may have to settle for second best if he makes the move to Paris Saint-Germain this summer.
      For once, the Portuguese superstar may not be the highest-paid player in his team.

      Cristiano Ronaldo would earn less than Neymar if PSG offered to match his current salary

      Juventus are reportedly planning to cash in on the 35-year-old before his contract expires in 2022.
      PSG sporting director Leonardo has already indicated their interest in the five-time Ballon d’Or winner.
      It is expected that the Ligue 1 side will have to at least match Ronaldo’s current wages to secure his signature.
      He rakes in £540,000 a week – nearly FOUR times as much as the club’s next highest paid player Matthijs de Ligt.

      But it will be a different story if he makes the move to France.
      Neymar, 28, sits firmly at the top of the pile with wages of more than £600,000-per-week.
      Kylian Mbappe would be the third highest-paid player on £400,000-per-week.
      But PSG are believed to be ‘talking directly’ with both of the players over new contracts.

      Mbappe, 21, has long been touted for a move to Real Madrid.
      While Neymar, 28, is repeatedly linked with a return to Barcelona.
      Edinson Cavani and Thiago Silva were also among the highest-paid players at PSG until this summer.
      But Cavani, 33, joined Manchester United and Silva, 36, made a move to Chelsea.

      Paulo Dybala dropped from Argentina squad due to genital problems with Juventus star set to miss World Cup qualifiers

      by

      JUVENTUS star Paulo Dybala has been left out of his national team – with Argentina’s FA revealing his absence is due to genital problems.
      The £72million-rared playmaker came on as a sub in Juve’s 1-1 Serie A draw at Lazio on Sunday.

      He previously scored in the Turin giants’ 4-1 midweek Champions League win over Hungarians Ferencvaros.
      Dybala had been called into Argentina’s squad for their upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Paraguay and Peru.
      But the 26-year-old has now been dropped after team doctors diagnosed problems with his private parts.
      The Argentine FA made no attempts to spare Dybala’s blushes as they released a statement about him and national teammates Marcos Acuna.

      The association said: “Marcos Acuna and Paulo Dybala have been dropped.
      “The Sevilla player has been withdrawn from the squad as a result of the muscle problem he suffered playing for his club on Saturday.
      “Meanwhile Dybala has also been left out after presenting general genito-urinary symptoms.
      “He needs to rest from playing sport, and to have tests.”

      Angry Argentina fans have since begun speculating as to the cause of Dybala’s problems as the 29-cap ace fails to show for international duty yet again.
      The five-time Serie A winner last played for the AlbiCeleste a year ago, and has since missed out for a host of different reasons.

      Dybala’s South American national bosses have failed to show him the usual discretion players receive when suffering unusual problems.
      Everton declined to fully explain why James Rodriguez was sidelined after a knock against Liverpool last month.
      It took media in the winger’s native Colombia to reveal he had in fact suffered a testicle injury. More

      PSG confirm entering Cristiano Ronaldo transfer race as chief Leonardo reveals ‘maybe he will quit’ Juventus tomorrow

      And sporting director Leonardo believes PSG are one of the few teams capable of doing a deal.
      He told PSGTV: “Today in football we do not know what will happen.
      “Maybe tomorrow Cristiano Ronaldo wakes up and says I want to go play elsewhere.
      “Who can buy him? It’s a closed circle.

      “PSG enters this circle. Usually it is about opportunities, situations.
      “The transfer window, we have to prepare for it and that’s what we do. We have our priorities, our lists, but something unforeseen can happen.”

      How PSG could line-up with the Portuguese superstar
      Ronaldo, 35, earns approximately £540,000-a-week at Juventus and has led the side to Serie A titles in each of his two years in Turin.
      Amid the coronavirus pandemic, even the richest clubs have suffered financially and PSG are no different.

      Yet Leonardo has stated that the club’s ‘ambition’ and ‘capacity’ to push ahead regardless is strong.
      He continued: “Last year we lost between 15 and 20 per cent [income] and this year it will be more.
      “But honestly, at PSG, there is the capacity and the means to overcome the crisis.
      “The other clubs will perhaps have more difficulty to overcome the crisis. But the ambition here is always enormous.”

      Juventus sit fifth in the Serie A table after drawing four of their opening seven games under Andrea Pirlo.
      Ronaldo continued his run of scoring in every league game he has played this season, netting six times either side of a spell out with coronavirus.
      Reports in Spain have already suggested that the Old Lady are open to offers for the veteran, whose contract runs to 2022.
      According to Sport, the severe impact of the pandemic on the club has made a sale possible with Ronaldo also linked to Manchester United and Wolves.

      Cristiano Ronaldo ‘set to be transfer listed as Juventus look to cash-in on £540k-a-week star before contract ends’

      CRISTIANO RONALDO will reportedly be put up for sale by Juventus to cash in on the Portuguese superstar before his contract expires.
      Sport reports the Old Lady are considering selling this summer for financial reasons given the state of play during the coronavirus pandemic.

      Ronaldo reels in £540,000 a week – nearly FOUR times as much as the club’s next highest paid player Matthijs de Ligt.
      The 35-year-old’s contract expires in 2022 and the Bianconeri risk seeing their prolific forward leave for free.
      The report states an extension to his current deal with its huge financial benefits is believed to be unsustainable.
      Ronaldo is not getting any younger and the Serie A giants are hopeful they can recoup some of the £99million they forked out to sign the Portugal captain from Real Madrid in 2018.

      He was signed by Juve chiefs with the aim of helping the Bianconeri dominate in the Champions League but bosses are frustrated after quarter-final and Last 16 exits since his arrival.
      Ronaldo has scored 71 goals in 94 appearances for Juventus, including six strikes in just four games at the start of the current Serie A campaign.
      But the former Red Devil was blasted as ignorant by retired Juventus ace Pasquale Bruno.
      Speaking on Italian football show Tiki Taka, the 58-year-old fumed: “He is ignorant.

      Manager Andrea Pirlo only pockets £1.6million-per-year after taking charge of the club

      “He has been in Italy for two years and has not yet learned to speak our language.
      “He uses Spanish to express himself. He has no respect for his team-mates or for the Italians.”
      But team-mate and former Chelsea flop Alvaro Morata came to Ronaldo’s defence after his character was called into question.
      The Spanish striker said Ronaldo was ‘loved by everyone’.

      After their 4-1 Champions League victory over Ferencvaros, in which Morata scored twice, he said: “I don’t have to say who Cristiano is and what he does.
      “He is always available, he makes himself loved by everyone, he is in the group.
      “He is our most important player and we hope he will always take us to the next level.”
      Ronaldo’s human side was also revealed by an Italian chef who described the humble celeb as a ‘decent boy’ after he was forced to wait 40 minutes for a table.
      Turin cook Davide Fiore emphatically denied Ronaldo showed any signs of arrogance despite keeping him and his family waiting before a pre-Christmas dinner in 2018.
