Real Madrid, Juventus 'finalise Cristiano Ronaldo transfer'

Juventus could reportedly announce the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo before the end of the day after reaching an agreement with Real Madrid.

The Italian club's president Andrea Agnelli is understood to have met with the 33-year-old in Greece on Tuesday morning to speed up negotiations.

Widespread reports now suggest that Madrid and Juve have agreed on a price, which is in excess of £100m - more than the £88m that had been widely reported over the weekend.

Spanish outlet Marca claims that Ronaldo's nine-year spell at the Bernabeu will officially come to an end in a matter of hours.

Madrid president Florentino Perez has decided not to stand in the Portugal international's way, granting him his wish to potentially see out his career in Serie A.

Ronaldo is understood to have signed a four-year contract at the Allianz Stadium.
