Video: Ronaldo bounces the ball in front of the Forbidden City, “a big commotion” in Beijing
Yesterday (July 20), Cristiano Ronaldo took a private jet to Beijing to attend the CR7 Tour series of events organized by sponsor Nike. As soon as he arrived in the Chinese capital, the star who just joined Juventus for a transfer price of more than 100 million Euro immediately created a fever here.
Chinese fans lined up at the airport as well as at places where the Portuguese player visited. Ronaldo fever will continue for a few more days when this star participates in exchange activities not only in China but also visits a number of other Asian countries.
On the first day in Beijing of the CR7 Tour, Ronaldo visited a number of historical sites such as the Forbidden City or Ung Hoa Palace. The player holding the Golden Ball also demonstrated his ball-bouncing skills in front of Ngo Mon.
A few days ago, Ronaldo just completed his medical examination to officially join Juventus. He had an introduction and met with teammates and fans of the team right after. However, it won’t be until the end of this month that the Portuguese star will have his first training session at his new club.
“I met coach Max Allegri and will start training from July 30,” Ronaldo revealed at the press conference.
Thus, Ronaldo has the opportunity to face his former team Real Madrid in his first appearance for Juventus. This could happen when the two teams meet on August 4 in the International Champions Cup match taking place in the US.
