Real Madrid and Juventus agree £105m transfer deal for Cristiano Ronaldo
That’s the way I feel, and I ask everyone, most especially our followers, to please understand me.
“Real Madrid CF communicates that, in response to the will and request expressed by the player Cristiano Ronaldo, he has agreed to transfer to Juventus FC”, Madrid said in a statement.
Some ground-shaking news this evening, as Cristiano Ronaldo leaves Real Madrid to fulfill his lifetime goal of playing alongside Emre Can.
Ex-Real Madrid striker Michael Owen described the transfer as “unbelievable” and suggested that Ronaldo’s arrival would lift Juventus’ profile even further.
Ronaldo left Manchester United to join Real Madrid in 2009, and won four C.L titles with the Spanish giants.
Added to that is the fact that the Real Madrid president has a record of swooping after World Cups, which is precisely what he did to sign Keylor and James in 2014 after their impressive performances for Costa Rica and Colombia, respectively. I’m leaving, but this shirt, this badge and the Santiago Bernabeu will continue to always feel as my own wherever I am.
Speaking to beIN sports, the 27-year-old said: “I have said 100 times before I am happy at Chelsea, but we will see what happens”.
Since he made his Champions League debut in October 2003, Ronaldo has scored the most goals (120) and also has the most assists (36). Sacking Conte could cost Chelsea up to £9million as the Italian is refusing to quit with one year remaining on his contract.
Belgium have won all their games from the group stages before they got to the last four, and their credentials will be put to test by France who have also been superb so far at Russian Federation 2018 World Cup.
In the round of 16 he correctly predicted that England would beat Colombia, Brazil would overcome Meixco and Uruguay’s victory over Portugal. Ronaldo scored four goals to take his tally to 85 for his country and break Ferenc Puskas’ record as Europe’s all-time leading worldwide scorer.
