One of the main objectives of Juventus since the beginning of summer 2018 has been to build a tournament-winning team around Cristiano Ronaldo. Italian club Juventus bought the Portugal superstar for a huge fee and have since then signed players to complement his style of play.

They were reportedly after Manchester United star Romelu Lukaku and now reports state that Ronaldo has approved the signing of Lukaku.

According to a report published in Daily Mail, CR7 has approved the signing of Lukaku. The report also states that Ronaldo is very happy with Lukaku’s eagerness to join the team and his readiness to give his everything for the side.

Although the reports are yet to be confirmed, it is being speculated that a contract between Manchester United and Juventus is now almost confirmed. It is worth noting that if Lukaku indeed joins Juventus, Paulo Dybala will have to sign up for the Red Devils.

The two teams have worked out a swap deal between their strikers. Moreover, Dybala’s agent was reportedly in London to talk with Red Devils, hinting at a possible transfer.

Interestingly, Inter Milan were also said to be interested in Lukaku and had even bid for them. However, Inter Milan’s bid did not meet Manchester United’s valuation of Lukaku and thus the deal could not materialise.

Despite extensive speculations and reports, there has been no confirmation on the issue up until now.
