Cristiano Ronaldo and Sergio Ramos could replicate Real Madrid success at Juventus
Cristiano Ronaldo and Sergio Ramos won plenty of trophies together at Real Madrid with the duo playing a starring role in multiple UEFA Champions League victories. Juventus are determined to conquer Europe with Cristiano Ronaldo and the arrival of Sergio Ramos could give the Serie A giants the class and experience required to win Europe's premier club competition.
While Sergio Ramos might be 34-years-old, he has shown no signs of slowing down and continues performing at the highest level. Although Juventus have the likes of Bonucci, Chiellini, De Ligt, and Demiral as their centre-backs, the addition of Ramos will definitely bolster their chances.
Demiral has been linked with an exit in recent weeks while Chiellini seems to have lost a little bit of sharpness because of injuries. With De Ligt still young and relatively inexperienced, the Real Madrid captain could really add the winning mentality and know-how to the Juventus backline.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Sergio Ramos are both born winners and with both of them still going strong, Andrea Pirlo might be tempted to take a short term risk on the experienced duo and pair them up once again at Juventus.
