Juventus is currently in the process of reviewing a decision made by an arbitration court regarding a payment dispute with former striker Cristiano Ronaldo. The court had ordered Juventus to pay Ronaldo approximately €9.8 million ($10.46 million) in owed wages. Ronaldo, who now plays for Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia, claimed that he was owed around €19.5 million ($20.81 million) in outstanding wages by his former club, stemming from a pay cut agreement made during the COVID-19 pandemic.
In a statement sent to Reuters, Juventus confirmed that the arbitration board had validated the compensation reduction agreement for the 2020/21 sporting season. The tribunal ruled that Juventus was liable for half of the amount requested by Ronaldo, resulting in the club being ordered to pay approximately €9.8 million to the Portuguese striker.
