Eight years after Cristiano Ronaldo left Manchester United for Real Madrid, he joined Juventus for even more money.

It's difficult to think of another player whose value has increased at the age of 33. Ronaldo is not just a physical specimen, he is arguably the greatest player of all-time. Lionel Messi is amazing, but Ronaldo is proven in multiple leagues and won trophies with his national team, two things Messi has never achieved. Ronaldo is truly special and his latest fee is further proof of that.

Cristiano made 292 appearances for Real Madrid and scored 311 goals. He is one of the extremely few players in history to score more goals than he has made appearances, and he is sure to run defences ragged in Italy. Ronaldo at 33 is well worth his price tag.
