LA Galaxy footballer blasts Cristiano Ronaldo for moving to Juventus: "It's not a challenge"

LA Galaxy footballer blasts Cristiano Ronaldo for moving to Juventus: "It's not a challenge"

A footballer called Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who is currently plying his trade in America with LA Galaxy, has spoken about Ronaldo's move to the Italian giants.

The former Sweden international striker stated: "Cristiano talks about new challenges, he calls it a challenge to move to a club that have been winning the Serie A title with their eyes closed."

"Why did he not choose to go to a club in the second division?"

"Try to become a champion with a second division team and take them to first. That is a challenge."

Zlatan, clearly upset by Ronaldo's claim that his move to Juventus offered a new challenge for the Portuguese star, went on to state in no uncertain terms that such a suggestion is nonsense.

The Portuguese international has clearly had few difficulties in Serie A so far this season, scoring 14 goals in 19 league matches as we reach the halfway point of the campaign.
