Juventus director reveals how 'crazy' Ronaldo move happened
Goal
An incredible overhead kick in April gave the Old Lady the idea to make an effort to land the Portugal star
Juventus sporting director Fabio Paratici said his club got the idea to sign Cristiano Ronaldo after his stunning bicycle kick against them in April.
The then-Real Madrid star lit up the Champions League quarter-final first leg in Turin with two goals, including a sensational overhead kick in the second half.
Ronaldo's strike was so stunning that it even caused fans at the Allianz Stadium to stand up and applaud the visiting player's effort.
In addition, Paratici has revealed it was the moment that set the move in motion.
"The crazy idea started after the crazy goal he scored against us," Paratici told Sky Italia.
"(Ronaldo's agent) Jorge Mendes told us that Cristiano was stunned by the attention he received, he said that one day he would like to come to Juventus."
That vision became a reality earlier this month, when Ronaldo signed for Juve in a deal worth €100 million (£88m/$117m).
