Fabio Paratici says Juventus insist Cristiano Ronaldo deserved FIFA's The Best award.
Ronaldo did not attend the gala as Barcelona star Lionel Messi was named the winner on Monday night.
We respect Messi, but Cristiano Ronaldo deserved to win the award as The Best," Paratici told DAZN.
We thought that after last season, when he won the Nations League with Portugal, Serie A and the Italian Super Cup with Juve, he deserved to win it.
It's a pity he is not available this evening, but he had a slight adductor issue and we'll see how he feels for the weekend."
