Ronaldo decided to sign for Juventus, who at the time were dominating Serie A, but had been constantly denied the Champions League title and CR7 was hired for that purpose. However, the Portuguese was unable to lead them to continental glory either, but he did leave his mark on the club by scoring more than 100 goals in just three years with the Turin team.

Although he was unable to help Juventus win the Champions League, the signing of the Portuguese star with the Serie A team seemed to be a move celebrated by everyone in the Italian league, as they acquired the services of one of the best in the world and undoubtedly the audience numbers during Cristiano's time in Italy increased considerably.

However, it seems that not everyone was in agreement with his signing for Juventus, as the Italian team's advisor, Beppe Marotta has assured that he did not want Cristiano and advised against signing him. "I did not agree with Cristiano's operation," he said. In that sense, let's remember that Juventus paid 117 million euros to sign the Portuguese, who won five titles with the team.
