But the club are confident that they’ll win the case, at least, this is according to a report from Tutto sports.

An Investigation between Consob and the Turin Public Prosecutor’s Office revealed that the agreements signed in those salary manoeuvres were respected by the club, with the involved players being paid the three months wages they agreed to waive.
Ronaldo never signed those private contracts. Juventus lawyer Cesare Gabasio and his team claim that, without that contract, Ronaldo has no right to demand repayment from the club.
The documents sent to the Court of Arbitration by Ronaldo’s legal team, the report continues, are invalid because they relate to the Prisma investigation. Another key document brought forward by the Old Lady relates to when the Portuguese star decided to leave to Manchester United in the summer of 2021.
In order to secure his exit, the forward signed an agreement stating that he no longer had any outstanding debts with the club. For now, it’s not clear which was this case would swing, but it’s one too many controversy for a club aiming to win the Serie A title this season.
Already, they’ve had to deal with Paul Pogba’s doping case and the legal action brought against them by another of their former player, Leonardo Bonucci. The Bianconeri could also have injury crisis on their hand.
