On July 10, 2018, the big transfer bomb burst: Cristiano Ronaldo left Real Madrid after nine years and joined Juventus Turin. 117 million euros flowed for the then 33-year-old.
On May 26, 2018, Cristiano Ronaldo played his 438th and last competitive game for Real Madrid. It was the Champions League final against Liverpool. Los Blancos prevailed 3-1 in Kiev, Ronaldo won his fourth Champions League title with Los Blancos and his last of five. After the game, the Portuguese drew attention and said on the pitch: “We made history and we have to enjoy it. It was very nice to be at Real Madrid. In the next few days I will speak to the fans who are by my side stand, give an answer.”
Via Juventus it went back to ManUnited – and from there to Al-Nassr
About seven weeks later it was announced: Ronaldo is leaving Real Madrid with 450 goals as the record goalscorer and is signing for Juventus Turin. After nine years in Madrid, ‘CR7’ wanted to take on a new challenge at the age of 33. At Juve, the five-time world footballer wanted to prove it to everyone again, winning the Champions League a sixth time. However, the star attacker was denied the latter success. In return, he won further national titles, becoming champion and cup winner in England, Spain and Italy. After three years in Turin, scoring 101 goals in 134 competitive games, he returned to Manchester United and thus to the club he left for Real Madrid in 2003. A year and a half later, the Red Devils chapter ended ingloriously for Ronaldo, his contract was terminated and he has been playing for Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia since January.
