The Dutch defender has completed a big-money switch to the Serie A champions, but insists a Portugese superstar played no part in his decision. de Ligt insists his €75 million (£68m/$84m) move to Juventus was driven by personal ambition, with Cristiano Ronaldo having no influence on his decision to head for Italy.

After seeing his future become the subject of much speculation over recent months, the Netherlands international has finally brought a long-running saga to a close. The reigning Serie A champions have won the race for his signature, with the highly-rated 19-year-old opting to take on a new challenge in Turin after heading for the exits at Ajax.
It had been suggested that a chat with Portuguese superstar Ronaldo after the UEFA Nations League final in June helped to sway De Ligt’s thinking, but he insists that is not the case.

“After the Nations League final I was already sure that I wanted to join Juventus, but it was still a big compliment to have Cristiano ask me to join here but it didn't make the difference,” De Ligt told reporters at his first press conference as a Juve player.
