Cristiano Ronaldo's move to Italy has generally been seen as good news in the country and for Serie A, Napoli fans might not agree but at least one business owners in the city is making money off the move.
For the past seven seasons Juventus have been the league champions in Italy, it's all getting a little boring, and anytime someone gets close they find a way to pull away again.
A couple of years ago Napoli had the gall to challenge them for the title but ultimately they fell short, to make sure they didn't get close the next season the Old Lady went and signed Gonzalo Higuain.
Once again last season the side from Naples were the biggest challengers to ending Juve's total domination of Serie A. They led for much of the season but once again failed to get over the line.

The logical step would have been for the Turin club to sign Dries Mertens but they decided that Italian domination was no longer enough and instead decided to try and sign Cristiano Ronaldo. No doubt that will mean more eyes on the product in Italy but possibly less competition.
One vendor has taken the chance to help Napoli fans show how much they dislike the new Juve signing by selling toilet paper with Ronaldo's face on it.
When Juve signed Higuain from Napoli in 2016 for €90 million the former Real Madrid striker was also subject to the same treatment, after scoring 36 goals in the league the season before for the Naples side.

Ronaldo's move came on the back of winning the Champions League for the third time in a row with Real Madrid and now his job will be help Max Allegri's side win the competition for the first time since 1996. They've have five failures in finals since then.
Napoli's summer has been interesting with losing Maurizio Sarri to Chelsea and replacing him with former Real boss Carlo Ancelotti, though they've also lost Jorginho to Chelsea too.
If Ronaldo ends up having a shitty time in Italy at least he can wipe himself down on his own face.
