DBasia.news – The biggest transfer, in terms of profile and reputation, has happened during this summer transfer market. He is Cristiano Ronaldo. The 33-year-old winger was bought by Juventus from Real Madrid for more than €100M and an additional €12M.
Ronaldo is in four-year-contract with Bianconeri, with €30M each year. This confirmation ended the rivalry between Ronaldo and Barcelona megastar, Lionel Messi, at least in La Liga.
Former Manchester United player has left Madrid after nine years career. Ronaldo got four Ballon d’Or, four Champions League titles, and two La Liga titles. He is living legend of Madrid.
Jorge Mendes, Ronaldo’s agent, said Juventus will be his client’s last club. Previously Ronaldo played in Portugal (Sporting Lisbon), England (Man United), and Spain (Madrid). His successful career is expected to continue in Italy.
Ronaldo has joined Juventus. But there are some players who haven’t trust him. One of them is his former teammate in Man United, Ryan Giggs, who is now the coach of Wales National Team.
“I’m surprised that he would leave Real Madrid and go to Italy,” “I think it’s a big challenge for him but he’s going to a huge club. Having that on your CV… Real Madrid, Man United and Juventus. It’s some CV,” Giggs said to ESPN.
“He’s obsessed with being better than Messi. He has that now that ‘I did it in England, I did it in Spain, I’m going to do it in Italy – and I did it with Portugal’. So maybe that will be his argument when people ask ‘Is Ronaldo better than Messi?” Giggs concluded.
