A Savoy arrival, in true Juve style, surprising everyone while the eyes of the world were turned a few thousand kilometers away, to Moscow, where France was preparing to win its second World Cup. Cristiano Ronaldo's Juventus adventure began around 5:30 PM, when the Portuguese landed at Caselle Airport. Wearing jeans, a gray T-shirt, and sunglasses, CR7 arrived accompanied by his partner Georgina and son Cristiano Jr. Not a word, just a simple thumbs-up captured by Juve photographers, before diving into a gray SUV and disappearing, awaiting his medical, confirmed at J Medical on Monday morning, and the eagerly awaited official presentation, scheduled for 6:30 PM at the Allianz Stadium. The news of Ronaldo's arrival set fans in motion, who immediately flocked to Turin's most prestigious hotels in the hope of catching a glimpse of their hero. But the former Real Madrid star was nowhere to be seen. Neither at the Golden Palace nor at the Turin Palace, where Emre Can and Cancelo, the other new signings of the Italian champions, are staying. Jorge Mendes, the player's agent and the "mastermind" of the deal of the century, did appear there, as did Ricardo Regufe, Cristiano's close friend. Their movement was enough to agitate the approximately 50-100 supporters present, who were convinced it was Ronaldo. He was, however, somewhere else entirely, at La Mandria Park, outside Turin, at the "Royal Park I Roveri," dining with the Juventus top brass, Andrea Agnelli at the forefront. Between a secret landing and a top-secret location where CR7 will spend the night, Ronaldo's adventure at Juventus has officially begun. He awaits his reveal on Monday, with his first real crowd and his first words as a Juventus player.
