Juventus and Portugal forward Cristiano Ronaldo is taking no notice of the rumours surrounding his future as he prepares for the European Championship.

Juventus attacker Cristiano Ronaldo has affirmed that he is only focused on the Euros amid persistent speculation surrounding an exit from Turin.

The Old Lady could only muster a fourth-placed finish in Serie A last term - with Inter Milan ending their perennial reign of dominance - and they suffered a humbling last-16 Champions League exit at the hands of Porto.

Juve's underwhelming 2020-21 season has led to rumours that Ronaldo could make a sensational return to Manchester United, but the five-time Ballon d'Or winner has affirmed that he is ignoring the talk surrounding his next career move.

Speaking to reporters, Ronaldo said: "I have been playing at the highest level for 18 years. It doesn't really bother me. If I was 18 or 19, I don't think I would sleep thinking about the future. Now, I'm 36.

"Am I'm staying? It doesn't matter now. What happens will be for the best. Now I'm focused on the European Championship. I want to win and I want to have positive thoughts from the first to the last game."

Ronaldo struck 29 goals in 33 Serie A games last season to win the Capocannoniere, and he is expected to lead the line in Portugal's Euro 2020 opener with Hungary on Wednesday.
