Bayern president Hoeness blasts €100m price tag for 'too old' Ronaldo

05 dic 2018

The arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo at Juventus last summer surprised many, with some scepticism surrounding the deal even now, despite the player's magnificent start at the Allianz Stadium. One of these sceptics is Bayern president Uli Hoeness, who spoke about the deal in an interview with Bild.

"We would have signed Ronaldo with our eyes closed for 100 million euro if he was 24, but he is already 33, he's too old," Hoeness said.
