UEFA to Investigate Juventus over £99m Cristiano Ronaldo signing

UEFA is set to investigate Juventus to determine whether they breached Financial Fair Play regulations after signing Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid for £99m, so says reports.

Juve spent a total of £217m on players in this summer's transfer window, including the likes of Douglas Costa and Joao Cancelo.

However, according to Italian outlet Calcio Mercato, it is the Old Lady’s signing of the Portugal international which has caught the attention of UEFA, who will see whether their spending was in-line with the income they received in the 2017-18 season.

The five-time Ballon d'Or winner, who is reportedly earning £200,000-a-week, came under question after failing to find the back of the net in his first three league matches with the Turin club.

However, Ronaldo turned things around when he scored a brace in his side's 3-0 win over Sassuolo at the weekend.
