Juventus are so convinced they have won the race to sign Cristiano Ronaldo they have already decided to hand him the No.7 jersey, according to reports in Italy.
The 33-year-old looks set to leave Real Madrid after the club’s president, Florentino Perez, met with Ronaldo’s agent, Jorge Mendes, and sanctioned his sale if their £88million asking price is met.
Juve are already putting together their offer and intend to make Ronaldo the highest-paid player in Italy with a £26.5m-a-season, four-year deal.
And now Sport Mediaset report that talks are so far advanced that the club have already sought Juan Cuadrado’s approval to remove the Colombian of the No.7 shirt and hand it to Ronaldo instead.
The Portuguese superstar has been synonymous with the number throughout his nine years at Real, even creating a ‘CR7’ brand and clothing range.
Cuadrado will switch to the No.16 to allow Ronaldo his favourite shirt number, one which has been worn by Didier Deschamps, Antonio Conte, Paolo Di Canio and Marco Tardelli in the past.
Continuing the number seven theme, Sport Mediaset also claim that Juve’s desire is to announce Ronaldo’s arrival in Turin on Saturday July 7, giving them very little time to wrap up the deal.
Regardless, there is a growing confidence at Juventus that they are winning the race to sign Ronaldo after reports emerged that he has given his word to present Andrea Agnelli.
Real Madrid are also planning a farewell ceremony for Ronaldo to thank him for his incredible achievements at the club, having scored a club-record 451 goals in his nine trophy-laden seasons at the Bernabeu.
