“I’m very happy. The city is really nice, the fans are very kind and Juventus is a fantastic club, that is incredibly organized,” explained CR7.

“The players here are humble & they work very hard. It’s been fantastic.

“This is the best group I’ve ever played with. At Juventus we really feel like a team, unlike elsewhere where some players feel like they are better than others.

“Here everyone is humble, if Dybala or Mandzukic don’t score you see still see them happy. That is beautiful.

“They are very different. Juventus is more of a family.”

“If I face Real Madrid in the Champions League? The past is the past. Now I just want to win with Juventus, to defend those colors, the rest doesn’t count. If I face Real, I will give my maximum.

“Marcelo or Asensio to Juventus? I see that you write about everyone, from James to Bale to Asensio, but to be honest, Juventus does not need any other players.

“For the future? I don’t know, you might want to speak to the president. Marcelo? He is a strong player."

Ronaldo was also quick to debunk he joined the Bianconeri because he wanted the Champions League and break the club's 20-year jinx in the competition.

“I’ve said it before, and I’ll repeat: the Champions League should not be an obsession, and shouldn’t be faced like one.

“It’s a competition that you should face with tranquility. It’s a dream, we all want to win it."

CR7 missed out in the 2018 Ballon d'Or to former teammate Luka Modric believes he deserved to win it but congratulated the Croatian.

“I thought that I deserved it, I did everything on the field, the numbers do not lie. But it’s not the end of the world, I respect the decision and congratulations to Modric.

“Disappointed? Yes, but life goes on & I will work hard to win it next year.”
