STUNNER! Juventus offered Ronaldo to Barcelona; PSG now in contact | OneFootball

Juventus are eager for a European rival to take Cristiano Ronaldo off their hands this summer.

That's according to Lionel Messi's biographer Guillem Balague, who has declared Juve are so keen to offload the former Real Madrid star that they offered him to Barcelona.

Balague told BBC Sport: "Juventus wants to get rid of Cristiano Ronaldo's salary. He was offered to everyone, including FC Barcelona."

One interested party, reports Corriere dello Sport, is PSG, where Ronaldo's agent Jorge Mendes is in contact with their sporting director Leonardo.

It is likely Juve would be prepared to waive a fee for Ronaldo to help smooth negotiations.

For his part, Ronaldo is open to such a switch - though everything will depend on assurances that Neymar and Kylian Mbappe won't be sold upon his arrival. The veteran striker is desperate to win one final Champions League title before hanging up his boots.
