“I haven't seen Cristiano play for three months, but before he was good …”

Cristiano Ronaldo remains one of the world cracks in his own right. The Portuguese, who faces his second season at Juventus, has already reached the age of 35 but is still in great shape and shows with goals that he still has some time left.

Still, the age and the downturn in the market made the CIES place it out of the top 50 in its latest study of the market value of players, which valued 7 at 62.8 million euros, far from the 100 paid by the Juventus to Real Madrid.

Asked at a press conference about this classification, Julian Nagelsmann, coach of RB Leizpig, criticized her clearly and defended the footballer. “I haven't seen Cristiano play in three months, but before he was good. Without a doubt. It is interesting to see what experts made the list. Series A is going to resume, we can see Juve and there, evaluate. I think it is still very good. Sometimes I see his posts on Instagram and I still think he is very ambitious, “he added.

The always objective numbers do not leave Nagelsmann's statements in the wrong place. Until the break, Cristiano had scored 25 goals in 32 games between Serie A, Champions League, Cup and Super Cup. Further, He had an excellent scoring moment in which he scored every day from 14 to 23 with doubles against Udinese, Parma and Fiorentina and a hat-trick against Cagliari.
