Agnelli: I spoke to Ronaldo about the rape case, looked him in the eyes and I am very calm

Posted Saturday, October 27, 2018 by Marca.com
Juventus president Andrea Agnelli said that he looked Cristiano Ronaldo in the eyes when he spoke to him about the rape allegations he is facing in the United States and got the feeling that the player was relaxed about the situation.
Ronaldo signed for Juventus in the summer from Real Madrid as they look to win the Champions League but since then the Portuguese has been hit by the claims of rape dating back to 2009 in Las Vegas.
"It is a personal issue and the decisions are down to him but I told him that for me and Juventus we are always open for him and we are here to help and support him as we can," explained Agnelli.
On a football level Agnelli is convinced that Ronaldo can give them the boost they need.
"To know that the best footballer in the world chose to play for Juventus is a great pride," he continued.
Ronaldo denied accusations from Kathryn Mayorga claiming that she was trying to use his name to become famous. The case was reopened by police in Las Vegas and it is ongoing.
