There are a few Juventus fans still wearing Cristiano Ronaldo’s shirts at the Allianz Stadium, but some of them found a creative way to replace the striker’s name.
Juventus begin the post-Ronaldo era with their first home Serie A game of the season, against Empoli.
Cristiano Ronaldo left Turin on Friday with Manchester United that announced his return on the same day.
There weren’t many Juventus fans wearing Cristiano Ronaldo’s shirts for tonight’s game in Turin and some of them found a way to make their already-owned jerseys usable despite the striker’s departure.
A picture going viral on social media shows two of them wearing Juventus’ Ronaldo shirts, but with some much-needed changes.
One has replaced the striker’s name, adding the No.3 with a written ‘Fa caldo’, which translates into ‘it’s hot’. The other one used some wordplay to change Ronaldo’s name to ‘Spavaldo’, which means ‘arrogant’ or ‘cocky’.
He also wrote ‘Grazzie’ above the No.7, which is how Ronaldo thanked Juventus fans on Instagram, misspelling the world ‘Grazie’, thanks in Italian.
