The impossible has happened.

Real Madrid confirmed Cristiano Ronaldo's transfer to Juventus on Tuesday, announcing it has agreed to let the 33-year-old join the Bianconeri.

Madrid said in a statement it accepted Ronaldo's wish to leave the Spanish capital for Juventus.

The deal is reportedly worth €100 million - well below the player's €1-billion release clause.

Ronaldo - who joined Los Blancos in 2009 from Manchester United for a reported €94 million - collected four Champions League titles, three Club World Cups, two La Liga crowns, and two Spanish Cups during a trophy-laden nine-year spell at the Santiago Bernabeu. He also surpassed Raul as Madrid's all-time leading scorer, netting 451 goals in 438 matches across all competitions.

The Guardian's Fabrizio Romano expects Ronaldo to sign a four-year contract worth €30 million after taxes. The total cost of the move is expected to reach €340 million in fees, wages, and taxes.
