Ronaldo referred to himself as ‘agent Ronaldo’ in his first meeting with de Ligt after the defender became a Juventus player last week.

De Ligt joined Juventus from Ajax following a summer of speculation surrounding his future.

The 19-year-old was also hunted by Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona.

Ronaldo had told the defender to join him at Juventus following Portugal’s victory over the Netherlands in the Nations League final at the beginning of June.

And Ronaldo made reference to that conversation with the ‘agent Ronaldo’ remark when both of them met again in Turin.
