Cristiano Ronaldo says joining Juventus was an "easy decision" and not one that many players his age would take.
The 33-year-old was unveiled in Turin on Monday following a club-record £99million move from Real Madrid, where he scored 450 goals in 438 games.
The Portuguese threw his Madrid future into question while on the pitch following the Champions League final win over Liverpool, and the Spanish giants were willing to accept an offer from the Italian champions for their star man.
While Ronaldo said the move was well thought-out, it was not a tough choice to move to Juventus.
"Juventus are one of the best clubs in the world,” he said. “It was a long-thought-out move, but it was an easy decision to join the best club in Italy and a very important step for my career.
"Juventus have a great coach and a great president accustomed to winning. It was an easy decision to come here."
"I’m here because it’s a brand new challenge for my career. It’s a big club and, usually, players of my age go to Qatar or to China, with all due respect, so coming to such an important and outstanding club at this point in my career makes me very happy.
"That’s why I’m very grateful to Juventus for this opportunity because I can go on with my career."
