​According to Italian media reports confirmed by the club, Ronaldo did not train with Juventus on Friday morning.

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner, who arrived in the capital of Piedmont in 2018, is under contract for another year with Juventus.

Ronaldo, 36, is known to be disappointed with how his move to Juventus has played out. Since his arrival in Turin, the Italian grand has not gone beyond the quarterfinals in the Champions League, and in the last two seasons, it has completely dropped out by the 1/8 finals. Last season Juventus lost the Italian title, which they had won for nine years in a row.
