Italian football powerhouse Juventus has been ordered by the Court of Arbitration for Sport to pay their former star player, Cristiano Ronaldo, his unpaid wages. The dispute arose from pay reductions implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic, with Ronaldo claiming he was owed a staggering €19.5 million ($20.81 million) by the club.
Now plying his trade with Saudi Super League outfit Al-Nassr, Ronaldo successfully argued his case before the court, resulting in a settlement of €9.8 million being reached. Juventus wasted no time in responding to the ruling, acknowledging the tribunal’s decision to pay half of the amount requested by the Portuguese striker.
In a statement, Juventus expressed their intention to review the arbitration board’s decision and potentially contest it, indicating their commitment to protecting their rights. The club’s legal counsel is currently assessing the situation as they weigh their next steps.
This latest development adds another chapter to the ongoing saga between Ronaldo and his former club, highlighting the complexities of contractual disputes in the world of professional football. As the footballing world watches closely, the outcome of this case could have far-reaching implications for both players and clubs in the future.
