Bayern Munich chief Rummenigge questions Ronaldo Juventus move

Bayern Munich chief Karl-Heinz Rummenigge is surprised by Juventus' move for Cristiano Ronaldo.

Rummenigge is convinced Juve have overpaid for the former Real Madrid star.

“If prices are inflated then the fault lies with Manchester City and Paris Saint Germain," he told Merkur.

“Just look at what Real Madrid have done in the last few years without spending almost anything.

“There's no need to go crazy to win the Champions League and this is also our philosophy.

“Ronaldo? I was surprised by the fact that Andrea Agnelli decided to make this deal happen, but from Juve's point of view it makes sense.

“Italian football has lost ground in recent years, but we'd never invest all that money on a 33-year-old player."
