Cristiano Ronaldo: Juventus celebrate best moments for birthday
Cristiano Ronaldo swapped Real Madrid for Juventus back in July, moving to Italy in a £105million transfer deal.
The Portugal international was signed by the Serie A giants to help them challenge for the Champions League.
However, Ronaldo and Juventus are both facing a fight to win the crown after a shock 2-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid on Wednesday, with Diego Godin and Jose Giminez both on target.
Despite that, though, Spanish outlet AS claim Ronaldo would love to play Real at some point.
It is said he would be eager to prove a point to Real Madrid president Florentino Perez.
Perez cut Ronaldo loose this summer after refusing to give the Portugal international the bumper new contract he craved.
Back in October, the Juventus star hit out at Perez by saying: “I felt it inside the club, especially from the president, that they no longer considered me the same way that they did in the start.
“In the first four or five years there I had the feeling of being ‘Cristiano Ronaldo’. Less afterwards.
“The president looked at me through eyes that didn’t want to say the same thing, as if I was no longer indispensable to them, if you know what I mean.
“That’s what made me think about leaving. Sometimes I’d look at the news, where they were saying I was asking to leave. There was a bit of that but the truth is I always had the impression the president would not hold me back.

“If it had all been about money, I’d have moved to China, where I would have earned five times as much than here [at Juventus] or at Real.
“I did not come to Juve for the money. I earned the same in Madrid, if not more. The difference is that, at Juve, they really wanted me. They told me that and made it clear. They showed me that.
“The truth is that the president wanted me but, at the same time, he made it known to me that my departure would not constitute a problem.”
Meanwhile, La Liga expert Guillem Balague recently claimed Real WERE willing to offer Ronaldo a new contract.
But Perez’s decision to move the goalposts saw Ronaldo depart instead.
