- The ex Real Madrid star has also failed to win the Golden Shoe award for the past four seasons

Portugal international Cristiano Ronaldo has failed to make it into the 2018-19 Serie A Team of the Year after his worst goal-scoring record for Italian champions Juventus.

After his world record transfer move from Real Madrid to Juventus, Cristiano Ronaldo managed just 28 goals in his debut season for the Old Lady.

In the 2014/15 season while playing for Real Madrid, Cristiano Ronaldo was superb for Los Blancos scoring 61 goals in all competitions.

Now, his comparatively disappointing season has seen him miss out on the Italian top-flight's Team of the Year.

Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs?
