Dusan Vlahovic takes Man Utd star Cristiano Ronaldo’s No7 at Juventus after moving into his former Turin mansion

DUSAN VLAHOVIC has been handed Cristiano Ronaldo’s old No7 shirt at Juventus.

That’s after moving into the Manchester United star’s stunning former Turin mansion.

Vlahovic rejected interest from Arsenal to seal a £62million transfer to Juventus from Fiorentina last week.

The 22-year-old striker has scored 17 goals in just 21 Serie A games this term.

And Juventus fans will be hoping Vlahovic can fill the void left by Ronaldo when he returned to Old Trafford last summer.

Serbia international Vlahovic has already been given the keys to Ronnie’s old pad, which is a luxury hilltop mansion complete with an indoor swimming and Spiderman wallpaper.

But Juventus have gone a step further to indicate their trust in Vlahovic by giving him the iconic No7 jersey vacated by Ronaldo.

The hotshot insists he can handle the pressure of wearing the same shirt number as his attacking predecessor.

Vlahovic declared: “I know the weight of the No 7 shirt, but all Juve shirts weigh heavy.

“I am here to help my team-mates and make myself available. Only together can we achieve our goals.

“What counts is how we get on the pitch, not so much the numbers on the shirts.

“Choosing Juventus was easy. In Juve’s DNA there is the desire to win, to never give up and fight until the end, even when there is suffering.

“This is also my mentality and therefore the choice was easy.”
