Ronaldo already earned Juve €160m

By Football Italia staff

Juventus are getting a taste of the Cristiano Ronaldo bump already, as the stock rose 22 per cent over three days, worth an extra €160m.

As reports continue to maintain the €100m deal with Real Madrid could be done as early as Saturday, many are asking how it’s possible for the Bianconeri to sustain his salary demands.

These are €30m per year net, which would be €60m per year gross, but a clue has come from the stock exchange over the last few days.

The Juventus shares have surged 22 per cent in three days, meaning the club capital has gone from €665m to €825m, report Calcio e Finanza.

The salary would also be aided by some of the other companies within the Agnelli family portfolio.

Their holding company Exor controls, among others, Ferrari, FIAT and Jeep.

As Cristiano Ronaldo has a collection of luxury cars, Il Sole 24 Ore and Mediaset Premium claim he’ll be made the global face of Ferrari.

That alone would bring him €20m per year and technically be outside the club’s salary structure.

It is a trick already used extensively by the likes of Paris Saint-Germain.
