Cristiano Ronaldo has angered his Juventus teammates after being given 'too much freedom', with the Portuguese superstar missing training to pick up a new Ferrari.
The Italian outfit ran out 3-1 winners over Sassuolo on Wednesday evening to remain in the hunt for a Champions League spot.

Ronaldo managed to score in the game, but a report from AS has revealed he missed Monday training for a bizarre reason.
Juventus suffered a humiliating 3-0 defeat to AC Milan and players were forced to attend training the day later - that is, players who aren't Ronaldo.
The 36-year-old was given a day off to collect his new £1.4million Ferrari Monza straight from the manufacturer.

Juventus president Andrea Agnelli accompanied Ronaldo and it's seen Juventus players voice their concerns.
It's believed the team do not see Ronaldo as a leader on the pitch and his reaction to things not going his way is negative.
Rumours of him being 'isolated' are also frequent following a poor collective season under Andrea Pirlo.
Having made his name as a big game player in the Champions League, Ronaldo is uninterested in stepping down to the Europa League.

Pirlo addressed rumours the five-time Ballon d'Or winner receives special treatment earlier this season.
"I treat him like I treat all the other players," Pirlo explained. "I'm always available on and off the pitch. It's easy to have a good relationship between humble people. I'm like that.
"I behave with him - a champion - like I do with [Gianluca] Frabotta or [Manolo] Portanova, who are two young players.
"I do the same things I was used to doing when I was a player."

Individually, Ronaldo is still enjoying a great season at the Allianz Stadium.
He also became the first player to ever score 100 club goals in three different countries when he converted to make it 2-0 against Sassuolo, just minutes before the half-time whistle.
28 goals in 32 games also sees him top the goalscoring charts in Italy, six clear of second place Romelu Lukaku.
