Juventus forward Cristiano Ronaldo said on Saturday he remains focused on winning trophies with the Italian champions, amid rumours linking the Portugal star with a return to former club Real Madrid following Juve`s exit from the Champions League.

Juventus were knocked out in the last 16 of the Champions League on Tuesday as 10-man Porto progressed on away goals following a 4-4 aggregate draw.

The Italians` defeat sparked criticism of 36-year-old Ronaldo in the media, with the front page of Wednesday`s Corriere dello Sport saying "Betrayed by Ronaldo". Much of the disappointment stems from the fact that Juventus spent 100 million euros ($120 million) to sign him from Real in 2018 specifically with Champions League glory in mind.

"True champions never break!" Ronaldo said on Instagram, with a photo of him training ahead of Sunday`s Serie A game away to Cagliari. "Our focus is already in Cagliari, in the Serie A struggle, in the Italian Cup final and in everything that we can still achieve this season."

"History can`t be deleted, it`s written every single day with resilience, team spirit, persistence and lots of hard work." 

Andrea Pirlo`s side are third in Serie A with 52 points after 25 games, 10 adrift of leaders Inter Milan, who have played a game more.

Juventus face Atalanta in the Coppa Italia final on May 19.
