Real Madrid sign next Cristiano Ronaldo

Author: Web Desk

Real Madrid signed Olympique Lyon forward and ex-Real Madrid youth product Mariano Diaz on Thursday.

Mariano will wear Ronaldo’s number 7 jersey at Real Madrid. The 25-year-old scored a total of 18 league goals in 37 league games last season.

His stats are not quite up to the level Ronaldo has set, but they are still good enough to provide Real Madrid the goals they might need to challenge rivals Barcelona and defend their UEFA Champions League title.

Mariano has signed a five-year contract at Santiago Bernabeu, becoming their first attacking signing since Ronaldo departed for Juventus earlier this summer.

Do you think Mariano deserve to wear Ronaldo’s number 7 jersey?
