'Ronaldo will struggle to get 40 goals in Italy' - Albiol warns former Real Madrid team-mate

Cristiano Ronaldo has been warned by former Real Madrid team-mate Raul Albiol that he will struggle to get 40 goals for Juventus this season.

The Portuguese superstar has grown accustomed to hitting that mark during a remarkable career which has seen him redefine the art of goalscoring.

Ronaldo has broken through the 40-goal barrier in each of his last eight campaigns, with 50-plus recorded six times and more than 60 efforts notched on two occasions.

A record-breaking spell in Spain has, however, been swapped for a stint in Italy with the reigning Serie A champions.
