Cristiano Ronaldo leaves Juventus training with arm injury amid exit speculation

Cristiano Ronaldo came off the Juventus bench to score the winner against Udinese in their Serie A opener on Sunday only for it to be ruled out for a marginal offside

Ronaldo left Juventus training on Wednesday with an arm injury and will be assessed ahead of their game against Empoli on Saturday.

The 36-year-old took a blow to his right arm after a challenge from Alex Sandro and was accompanied off the pitch by members of Juve’s medical team.

On Sunday, he was a surprise omission from the starting line-up for Juve’s Serie A opener at Udinese but boss Max Allegri insisted the decision was purely tactical, and was not the player’s choice.

He came off the bench to score a last-minute winner only for it to be disallowed by VAR for a marginal offside, as the game finished 2-2.

Juventus expect Ronaldo to stay at the club despite him being open to leaving this summer.

However, no club has made an offer for him and he has not officially told Juventus he wants to leave.

Any club wanting to sign Ronaldo would have to buy out his Juventus contract, which would cost between €25m and €30m.
