Cristiano Ronaldo could be sold by Juventus after the club's finances have been hit in recent months due to the spread of Cornovirus.
According to Italian news media outlet Il Messagero, the Biaconeri may not be able to afford Ronaldo's £500,000-per-week wages.
The economic impact of the global pandemic has led to club cutting down wages of players in recent weeks.
And it is understood that even when the matches resume in Italy, the Serie A champions will still not be able to afford his enormous wages.
Ronaldo recently agreed to let go of his four months salary to help save Juve's finances as well as manager Maurizio Sarri.
Their reduction have saved the Italian champions around £80million for the monthly payments of March, April, May and June.
Clubs in Europe have been hit with financial crisis and matches have been postponed until the pandemic have been swept under the carpet.
Lionel Messi and his Barcelona team-mates also had 70 per cent their wages cut during the coronavirus crisis.
Ronaldo made a summer move from Real Madrid to Turin for £100m but his market value has since dropped to around £60-65m, reports claim.
Players like Aaron Ramsey who is the second-highest earner after Ronaldo at Juve will also be affected by the current development.
