Credible (well IMO) journalists have yet to report on this.

Gianluca Di Marzio (who is essentially the Woj of Italian football) has yet to report on this. In fact, he hasn't written a single tweet about Ronaldo today so I would take those news/rumors with a grain of salt for now.

Cristiano Ronaldo could be set for a shock move away from Real Madrid this summer, amid reports the Spanish giants are seriously considering selling the 33-year-old

The five-time Ballon D’Or winner has scored a mind-boggling 450 goals in 438 appearances in all competitions for Real Madrid, since he arrived at the Santiago Bernabeu. He joined from Manchester United in the summer of 2009 for a then world-record fee of $131 million—due to the British pound’s devaluation, the original fee of £80 million amounts to $105 million at today’s rates.

It's all over Bleacherreport. I don't know if that is 100% credible enough, but it is literally trending every where.

Juventus doesn't allow this kind of rumours spread if not true.

Too old. Too much money.

Juve have wasted their money on old players like Ronaldo & Higuain. They are not building their smartly anymore like they were a few years ago.

Ronaldo will pay by himself the cost of the transfer. Financially IMHO Juventus will not suffer any blow.
He will be 34 soon and he is said to get a 5 year contract. Good for him but I doubt he can help Juventus winning the CL.

I was going to say.

CR7 is a giant brand as far as football, and Juventus now has that big marketing and PR draw, I think they could make back the money just by that alone.

As far as performance, he did come off a season which he had 44 goals in all competitions (not including International duties), I think he still has some left in the tank. But yeah, depending on how Real Madrid responds, it's still a tough climb for Juve to win the UCL, even with him.

The BBC reporting that Real indeed have received a bid for Ronaldo from Juventus and they are thinking it over. No deal just yet.

Nobody has confirmed yet but it looks like it's a done deal

I don't remember another rumored transfer getting so real and turning into fake news
