objectively, it makes sense. He won't win another CL title if he stays at Juventus, so if he wants to win another one, this is his best move ... they were close last season and he'll walk into that team has the main striker.

as a United fan, this is obviously a massive kick in the nuts, but let's face it - romanticism in football is truly dead. The two best footballers of the last 15 years and arguably two of the best to ever play this game are moving to state-funded plastic clubs this summer. Better get used to it, I guess.
