Juventus sporting director Fabio Paratici says there's no plans to discuss new terms with Cristiano Ronaldo.

Ronaldo is now inside the final 18 months of his current contract and being heavily criticised this week after Juve's Champions League elimination by Porto.

"Fortunately, he has one year left on his contract," said Paratici.

"We have time to talk to him. He is not on the agenda..."

He was also asking about the possibility of signing Barcelona star Lionel Messi.

Paratici believes he would fit in with Cristiano, but called his arrival "unlikely".

"The great players know how to play together but, now, let's say that all football has to think differently. It is an unlikely idea," he said.
