Genuinely think he has made this move in order to guarantee himself more titles in the Italian league which he can’t do at the moment in La Liga. He is all about numbers and the only way he’ll keep up with Messi is if he moves to a club like Juventus, in a half respectable league, where he will get trophies each year.
There’s no other reason why you would move away from Real Madrid as their main man. He’s trying to get away from a league that’s Messi is dominating.

Leagues mean nothing in this day and age, in terms of glory it's all about the Champions League.
Think it's a move that makes sense for all parties, Ronaldo can still have a quality team around him pushing for Champions Leagues. Madrid can purchase one of the new stars and rebuild around them.
Lol moving away from Messi?! More like Messi is scared to move away from Barcelona, whilst Cristiano seeks out new challenges after dominanting La Liga and the Champions League with Real Madrid.
He is the best ever, bar none, look at his goalscoring record in big leagues, big competitions and for both club and country to boot. He'll now cement his legacy in Italy, in one of the top 5 leagues in the world
Could we get Madrid interested in Ajose? Does Ronaldo earn enough to fund our 5 year plan now? Maybe this contract was what was holding back the takeover...?
Madrid got the better end of the deal getting rid of him. I don't even see it as close. Ronaldo has been amazing but he is not likely to live up to his wages at this age. Better to take the £88m and invest in a couple of excellent young players.
Disagree, I don't believe there's ever been an elite footballer who has looked after himself in the way Ronaldo has. I really wouldn't be surprised if he continues to be a major player for the next four years.

I highly doubt Messi is ‘scared’ of leavin Barcelona. More a case of ‘why leave?’ - he’s the best player in their side and the best player in their history. They are above every other club in the world in many respects - why not stay at the top?
On a side note, it is quite strange how such a majorly high profile transfer has kind of just happened without any kind of drawn out saga, or even that much intense media coverage.
Timing I guess, what with what else is going on in the world of football at the moment!
What a squad Juventus now have. I think they’ll sell Dybala and sign Savic. They are going to be some force.
They do seem to have a lot of 30 somethings though, Ronaldo adds to them!
They have a lot of young ones lined up to learn from this lot though. Caldara, Rugani, Spinazzola are all young defenders who are lined up for the future. I think Caldara in particular will be one of the world’s best centre backs in the future.
Another depressing story - Ronaldo will use his wealth as usual to crush it. If follows on from his tax evasion sentence in Spain.
I don't think it'll be that easy. The girl has some issues trying to get the law to overlook a few things (time since incident, lack of evidence) but there's strong potential for him to end up in a criminal case, as well as a civil one.

To be fair just about every major football star (player or manager) who's worked in Spain has had a tax evasion case, and paid up to avoid any further action.

They're welcome to Sissoko though lol
Always willing to move on to pastures new and attempt to break even more records.
In the future will go down as the greatest player ever if he can lead Juventus to a Champions League trophy.

Think they'll do very well in the CL next season.

Pretty sure that clubs get a fixed payment for shirt deals/sponsorship. Clubs don't get any extra money whether they sell 1000 shirts or 10 million.
Juve will of course be able to ask for more money next time the deal is due for renewal though.
the union said the firm needed to guarantee the future of thousands of people, "rather than enriching only one".

As part of that deal, she agreed never to go public with her allegations. But she is now trying to overturn the settlement.
She says she signed only because she was “terrified of retaliation” from Ronaldo and of “being publicly humiliated”, court papers claim.
She told Der Spiegel she was now coming forward after seeing sex abuse victims tell their stories as part of the #MeToo movement."
Bollocks is she now coming forward because of other abuse victims, she's coming forward because clearly the 287k has run out and she wants more.
