Cristiano Ronaldo said he achieved “great things” at Juventus after Manchester United announced on Friday they have reached a deal to re-sign the Portuguese star. 

Ronaldo, 36, made his name on the world stage in six years at United between 2003 and 2009 before moving to Real Madrid for a then world record transfer fee. He became a legend at Madrid, scoring a remarkable 450 goals in 438 matches in a glittering nine-year spell that included four Champions League triumphs and winning the Ballon d’Or for the world’s best player four times. Ronaldo joined Juventus in 2018 and won two Serie A titles, but his time in Turin has not lived up to expectations.
