Real Madrid confirm sale of Cristiano Ronaldo to Juventus
Real Madrid have confirmed the sale of Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo to Italian Serie A champions Juventus in one of the most spectacular transfers in football history.
The 33-year-old five-time world player of the year has moved for a fee reported in Italian and Spanish media as 105 million euros (123 million dollars).
Ronaldo joined Real from Manchester United in 2009 and won two Spanish titles and four Champions Leagues with the club in addition to a host of individual awards.
But he hinted his time at the Santiago Bernabeu could be up immediately after the last Champions League success and Serie A side Juve captured his signature. — DPA
