According to Juventus Director of Football Federico Cherubini, Manchester City declined to pay a transfer price for Cristiano Ronaldo.

In an interview with Tuttosport, Cherubini made a little dig at City, claiming that they were unwilling to pay a dime for Ronaldo and that United were a 'club with tradition.'

He said: “There weren’t the right conditions to do so [sell Ronaldo to City].

“Manchester United behaved differently, as a club with tradition. There couldn’t be a different end, given the way Ronaldo had spoken to us. We couldn’t force a player to stay in a context that he didn’t recognize anymore.

“We respect Ronaldo, but I share the same view as our President: ‘Juventus’ history is made by great champions, coaches and directors, but the club remains the most important thing.

“I must say that sometimes in the past, we had to pay to part ways with some players,” the Old Lady’s director said.

“In this case, with other clubs [City], we wouldn’t be able to get anything at all.”
