Cristiano Ronaldo signs Juventus jersey for Cuban doctors in Turin

July 14, 2020

Many of the professionals who are part of the Cuban doctors' brigade that have worked in Turin treating Italians affected by Covid-19 are Juventus fans, and others are not, but they feel passionate about football, and the stadiums, in times of pandemic, are closed.

The games are played at empty stadiums, they are broadcast on television and on the Internet. During their stay in Italy they could not enter either the Juventus stadium or the Torino stadium.

These days there are many requests: whether my brother or my father has covid, and all they ask for is that. They cannot.

But the Juventus directors want to do it for the Cuban doctors, even if not in a personal way.

The guys are nervous, they know that something will happen. Ilham arrives with a magic box.

Then, finally, we know: Juventus has sent each Cuban doctor and nurse in Turin an original pullover of their number 7, Cristiano Ronaldo, with his signature.

Cristiano agreed. They cannot do it, but this, they said, yes, because it is for the Cuban doctors and nurses in Turin.
