Juventus president Andrea Agnelli traveled to Greece to meet with Cristiano Ronaldo in order to complete the signing of the Portuguese star, according to a report from ESPN.
La Gazzetta Dello Sport first reported that Agnelli is on his way to Greece, where Ronaldo has been on a break ever since being eliminated from the 2018 FIFA World Cup against Uruguay.

Gazzetta also reported that Ronaldo had a chat with Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri last Friday.
Juventus leaked a video suggesting that a new player will wear number 7 for them this season on Chinese platform Weibo.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s move to Juventus appears to be all but done after talks to sign a new deal with Real Madrid failed. The Portuguese star has been leading Madrid for the last nine seasons and Los Blancos will be expected to sign a replacement this summer, with players like Neymar, Hazard or Mbappe being mentioned as candidates to wear the white shirt next year.
