Italian media football-italia reported that the former Juventus goalkeeper Buffon commented that when C Ronaldo joined the old woman, Juventus lost the team's DNA. In Buffon's view, after C Ronaldo joined, juventus' team as a whole was lost.

At present, Buffon still has no choice to retire, the 43-year-old has returned to Parma, and he is ready to continue to help the team return to Serie A. Buffon also has something to say about Juventus' current situation in Serie A. After the first half of Serie A, Juventus are now fifth, four points away from fourth-placed Atalanta.
"Juventus had the opportunity to win the Champions League in the first year Ronaldo came, it was my year at Paris Saint-Germain, but I don't know what happened. When I came back, I worked with Cristiano Ronaldo for two years and we worked together very well, but I think Juventus lost the DNA of a team. Buffon said.
"We reached the Champions League final in 2017 because we are a team with an experienced game, but most importantly, we are a whole and the Champions League matches have been very competitive from the start of the group stage. After Ronaldo came, our wholeness was lost. Buffon continued.
Football-italia reports that the statistics also illustrate some of the problems. Although he left Juventus in the summer to join Manchester United, Cristiano Ronaldo is still the player with the most goals scored by Juventus in the natural year of 2021, scoring a total of 20 goals. In addition to Buffon, Juventus' Bonucci and Chiellini also mentioned the issue, arguing that Juventus now relies more on player talent than on the whole team as a whole.
