Transfer buzz: Ronaldo tipped to move from Juventus

Even though the football leagues around the world have come to a standstill due to the coronavirus outbreak, the top clubs have been getting their priorities right as they set their sights on targets for the next season. Whether the competitions will be completed in all leagues still remains to be seen, but for certain some of the top clubs have been busy assessing their signings when the new season gets underway.

Topping the list is Arsenal with the entry of quite a few players making the rounds even as star player Cristiano Ronaldo looks like he’s headed for another switch from Juventus.

The buzz, as per Spanish daily ‘Marca’, is that Ronaldo may either move on to Paris Saint-Germain or make a return to the Premier League with old club, Manchester United. Ronaldo has so far scored 21 goals in 22 matches for Juventus.

Manchester United, on the other hand, look to be preparing for a bid for Juventus and Netherlands 20year-old defender Matthijs de Ligt as French midfielder, who has been itching for a transfer for quite some time now, headed to Turin rather than to Real Madrid as was being said earlier.

Pogba’s teammate in the France squad and former Arsenal and Manchester City defender Bacary Sagna has gone on record saying that the temperamental playmaker would prefer a switch to ‘La Vecchia Signora’ in Piedmont, Turin. Speculation about the temperamental Manchester

United midfielder has been rife for months now, with his agent Mino Raiola admitting last year that Pogba wanted to quit Old Trafford.

However, it is the Gunners who seem to be hogging the transfer headlines. Real Madrid are planning to offload James Rodriguez permanently during the summer transfer window and Arsenal are reportedly in the forefront to sign the 28-year-old Colombian striker. However, the London club may have some sort of competition from fellow Premier League clubs Everton and Wolverhampton Wanderers.
