The player is in Portugal to celebrate his sister’s birthday with his family and also to get away from one of the worst affected areas of the coronavirus. He will be able to return in a private jet, ‘tutor spot’ says.

There is nothing like being a world-class footballer so that the government gives you special treatment. Cristiano Ronaldo will be given special permission to return to Italy despite the fact flights to the country have been cancelled.

‘Tuttosport’ says that the Portuguese travelled to Portugal to be with his sister who was celebrating his birthday, and his mother, who is recovering from a stroke.

After a few days at home, the Juventus star will fly back to Italy on Thursday and will do so thanks to special permission he has received from the authorities.

Cr7 will return in a private jet despite the fact that Portugal blocked, like Spain, flights to and from Italy. Although serial A has been suspended, Cristiano Ronaldo wants to be able to train normally to prepare for the champions league last 16-second leg tie. His Juventus side faces Lyon on 17th march. That game has not been suspended.
