Cristiano Ronaldo officially left Real Madrid in July for a world record move to Italian club Juventus, but Mendes claimed that he had made up his mind several months ago.

''Ronaldo is the best in history and the credit for this deal isn't mine, it's Juve and President Andrea Agnelli's who decided to take Cristiano.

''Juventus wanted him and they bought him, he'd already told me he wanted to play for Juventus in January, that's the truth.

"I thought it was impossible, but what I said to him was that it was very difficult, not impossible. Then I met the directors, the first meeting was with Pavel Nedved and Fabio Paratici, before the game against Real.

"Then I met the President, and from impossible I started to believe it was becoming probable, and as soon as Agnelli took the stage it was feasible. The negotiations lasted a couple of months,'' Mendes explained according to the report on Bleacher.

Before leaving Real Madrid, Cristiano Ronaldo won La Liga and the Copa del Rey twice and also scooped four UEFA Champions League titles.

Earlier, Legit.ng had reported how Portugal international Cristiano Ronaldo was reported to have told Juventus' chiefs to give him three more bodyguards for himself and his family in Italy.

One of these three men will be monitoring his house in the Gran Madre Park, while the other two guards will be looking after him and his family.
