Well this has certainly blown the transfer window firmly open, hasn’t it?
And it would be completely unlike Cristiano Ronaldo to announce the decision while the World Cup is going on that he is no longer in.
We were still partly shocked that Ronaldo completed his move to Juventus for £105million today.

At one point in January he went on a run of scoring 21 goals in 11 games and finished as top scorer in Europe with 15 goals this season.

Terrible shape for a 33-year-oldAFP or licensorsThere is definitely another season or two of Ronaldo in this destructive form and it could prove to be an absolute masterstroke both on the pitch and off it.
However, for Real Madrid they need to get a box office replacement lined up, and quickly.

The match is set for August 4th, which is a matter of weeks away.
