Jose Mourinho Hails Juventus For Signing Cristiano Ronaldo

Jose Mourinho has congratulated Juventus

for the remarkable achievement of signing

Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid.

Juventus pulled off a major coup last week by completing the signing of

Cristiano Ronaldo for £100m who had previously been tipped with a return to

Old Trafford.

Jose Mourinho has praised Juventus for persuading the Portuguese forward to

join, while also claiming that Serie A is now a real force once again.

“We see three dimensional football. Everyone will look to Italy for Cristiano,

to Spain for [Lionel] Messi and England for the Premier League,” he told

Teleradiostereo.

“The Spanish League no longer has the two best players in the world. Now

one’s in Spain and the other’s in Italy. The Premier League is the most

competitive league with the best players.

“At this time, Serie A has become the most important championship in the

world. Everything can change in football, the prospects of teams like Inter,

Milan and Roma now change, and now Juve is much stronger with Cristiano.

“They are more motivated by the signing, they are contributing to the quality,

attention and excitement of Serie A. For this reason, I congratulate to

Juventus for this coup, which involves football, marketing and merchandising.

It’s the complete transfer.”
