The Serie A fans would surely find this a controversial statement.

Cristiano Ronaldo snubs Serie A as he says he would only play in “important” games if it were up to him.

Juventus ace Ronaldo has claimed that he would only play in some important games if it were up to him, limited to the Champions League and the international tournaments.

The Portugal international will turn thirty-five in the coming months but he is showing no signs of stopping. The Juventus man is going strong both domestically and internationally. However, he states that he would only play in important matches if possible, snubbing his domestic league in the process.

“I will tell you, if it were up to me, I would only play some important games,” Ronaldo told France Football. “Those of the national team and the Champions League. It is these kinds of games that emerge, those with a stake, a difficult environment, a pressure.

“After, you have to be a professional and perform well every day to honor your family and the club you represent and who pays you for it. So, always give the best.”

Furthermore, the former Real Madrid star suggested that he may go on to play for a little while longer, despite turning thirty-five in a few months.

“Age is just a number. It does not mean that at 34, 35, 36, you are at the end of your career. I can show that with my performances, how I play, the way I play, the way I still feel good, sharp, thinking about the game, more mature. This makes the difference.”

Juventus returned to the top of Serie A, as the 10-man champion beat Genoa 2-1 on Wednesday. It was Ronaldo’s late penalty that spared the blushes of the Bianconeri.
