Marek Hamsik has warned Juventus and Cristiano Ronaldo that ‘if you’re not Diego Maradona, you can’t win anything by yourself’.
Ronaldo’s transfer to Juve has been described as the biggest made by a Serie A club in years, given his status as arguably the best player in the world.
His arrival has been compared in significance to Napoli’s purchase of Maradona in 1984, but Hamsik made it clear the Argentine could not be surpassed.

“Juve stronger with Ronaldo? One player never wins anything by himself,” continued the midfielder to Corriere dello Sport.
“Not even if you’re the best in the world… Correction: if you’re not Maradona, you can’t win anything by yourself.
“Last season? We lost the title more than Juventus won it, but that weekend there were two situations, which demoralised us.
“We felt the world cave in on us.”
