The five-time Ballon d'Or winner said in an open letter published on Madrid's website he wants to start a "new cycle" in his career.

Ronaldo will link up with a familiar face in Turin, as he will be reunited with Khedira – with whom he won the second Champions League title of his career and first for Madrid – for the Serie A champion.

 

"Welcome to Turin, Cristiano," Khedira wrote on Twitter. "We had a great time together in Madrid, I can't wait to get back to work with you! Today is a special day for Juventus."
