Super agent Jorge Mendes insists Cristiano Ronaldo only wanted to leave Real Madrid for Juventus.

Mendes oversaw Ronaldo's €112m move to Juve in August.

“In January 2018, I and the few people who knew what was happening thought it would be very difficult to bring Cristiano Ronaldo to Juve," Mendes told Rai Sport.

“However, I want to make it clear that the idea started with the player himself. Ronaldo told me he only wanted to play for Juventus.

“That's where it began and I was in talks with the Bianconeri directors for months, so we all know how those negotiations ended up.

“Now Cristiano is happy with the club and his teammates, he is satisfied with Serie A and truly happy at Juventus."

Juve are top of the Serie A table and will face Atletico Madrid in the Champions League round of 16.

“Many have asked me about Juve and the Champions League. It will take a bit of luck to win it too, but Cristiano Ronaldo's arrival has certainly made Juventus stronger.

“I'd say all of Italian football has benefited from his presence."
