The Juventus and Portugal talisman has also been keeping his fans updated about his practice methods and fitness regime with regular social media posts.

Ronaldo returned to Italy last week after almost two months in Portugal where he was in self-isolation with his family in his native island of Madeira. With the Serie A giving the football clubs permission to start individual training, Ronaldo and all other overseas players were called back by Juventus.

All players who returned from overseas, however, have been sent to stay in self-quarantine for at least 14 days before they can join the club training. Ronaldo is also under quarantine and it looks like the five-time Ballon d’Or winner is making most his time at home to stay in touch with the game and be a step ahead of others when he joins the club training sessions.

Meanwhile, all Serie A clubs have been given the permission to resume group training from May 18 if they can adhere to the medical protocols, which involves testing the players for coronavirus every week. Football in Italy has been suspended since March 9 due to pandemic which killed over 31, 000 in the country. But with the government giving clubs permission to return to training, Serie A 2019-20 season could resume very soon.
