Cristiano Ronaldo is arguably one of the best players ever to have played the game of football. After dominating the game in teams like Manchester United and Real Madrid, the Portuguese wanted a new challenge.

A move to Juventus came calling. Juve who had made it all the way to the Champions League Finals in 2017, were optimistic that the Portuguese was the missing piece for them to win European silverware.
