The nine years at Real Madrid were wonderful, but it's a brand new step in my life, so I thank all the supporters with my heart, he told a press conference.EU ESTOU AQUI. @Cristiano is here. #CR7JUVE pic.twitter.com/YBkJjnDvAf— JuventusFC (@juventusfcen) July 16, 2018
But I have to focus on this next step. I'm looking forward to playing. I'm very motivated, concentrated and focused on that.
I'm going to try to show that I am a top player, as usual. I'm going to work hard in training. I don't think I have to show what I am more than that - you know my stats.
But I am very ambitious and I like challenges. I don't like to stay in my comfort zone, I like to seize new challenges.
After the experiences in Manchester and in Madrid, I'd like to mark the history of Juventus. I like challenges, again, and I hope everything will go very well.
