Cristiano Ronaldo accused of being ignorant by former Juventus player
Cristiano Ronaldo has been accused of being ignorant and showing no respect for his teammates by Pasquale Bruno. The former Juventus player claims that the Portuguese star has not made an effort to learn Italian and still uses Spanish to express himself in the dressing room.
Bruno was talking to Tiki Taka when he made the stunning claim. He said:
"He is ignorant. He has been in Italy for two years and has not yet learned to speak our language. He uses Spanish to express himself. He has no respect for his teammates or for Italians."
Alvaro Morata talks about Cristiano Ronaldo and Juventus
Alvaro Morata, on the other hand, has nothing but good things to say about Cristiano Ronaldo. He heaped praise on the former Real Madrid star and claims that he is a great teammate.
Contrary to what Bruno said, Morata reveals that Cristiano Ronaldo talks to everyone and helps his teammates during the matches and training. He told Sky Sport Italia:
"I don't need to tell you what Ronaldo represents and what he brings to the team. He's a great teammate, he talks to everyone, helps everyone and is our most important player. We all hope he can continue scoring and take us to the level he has envisaged in his mind."
Continuing to talk about his time at Juventus, Morata added that he has matured and returned as a better player. The Spaniard did not have a good spell at Chelsea and Real Madrid after leaving Juventus and his time at Atletico Madrid was not his best. He said:
"I said when I came back here that I felt like a more complete player and I matured as a person by going through the good and bad in my career. It was all a learning experience. The motivation I want in my football is the same as any other person in life, to feel wanted and loved. I think I have all that I need at Juventus. I can still improve and I believe we'll continue to grow together and go far."
Alvaro Morata scored twice last night in Juventus' win against Ferencvaros in the Champions League. His side will face Lazio on Sunday at the Stadio Olimpico.
