Cristiano Ronaldo has apparently made former Real Madrid team-mate Marcelo envious of the positivity at his new club Juventus, Tuttosport reports.

The Los Blancos club legend switched to the Serie A giants this summer and has kept in regular touch with Marcelo about his new life in Italy.

It has led to speculation that the Brazil left-back could follow suit and link-up with Ronaldo again in Turin in the future, however, there is no suggestion Real’s vice-captain, 30, will move from the Bernabeu.

Alex Sandro’s future at the Old Lady has been the subject of debate for some time, and given Marcelo plays in the same position, that has only served to increase rumours.

But, for now, that is all it is.
