At the same time as internationals, he won a Champions League (2007-2008) and a Club World Cup (2008).

The departure of Cristiano Ronaldo from Juventus is one of the strongest news in European football and there is already talk that the Turin team is requesting 29 million euros for the pass, although the club that buys it will have to face some 31 million in salary concept, as it is what you earn in Italy.
