Even though the transfer amount was not staggering when compared to Neymar's transfer fee, Cristiano Ronaldo's transfer to Juventus from Real Madrid made headlines for many days.

Ronaldo had an illustrious career at Real Madrid where he became a club legend by overtaking Raul as the top goal scorer for the club and won four UEFA Champions League titles. He also won four Ballon d'Or awards during his stay at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Ever since he has joined Juventus, he has made the Bianconeri invincible with his exemplary vision and goal-scoring exploits. He feels at home, pairing up with talented youngsters like Paulo Dybala, Douglas Costa, and Rodrigo Bentancur.

His understanding with co-forward Mario Mandzukic is almost telepathic and we could say, he is well on his way to winning many more titles with the Old Lady.
