Cristiano Ronaldo deserves his place in Real Madrid folklore, according to Sergio Ramos, with the club captain paying tribute to his now former teammate.
Juventus have snapped up the winger for 105 million euros and Ramos sent out his thanks to Ronaldo on Tuesday, referring to him by his Spanish nickname of El Bicho.
"Cristiano, your goals, your numbers and everything we have won together speak for themselves," tweeted the defender.
"You have deserved a prominent place in the history of Real Madrid. The fans will always remember you.
"It's been a pleasure to play by your side, El Bicho. Strong hug and good luck!!"
Meanwhile, Real left-back Theo Hernandez also went on record with a message to Ronaldo following his exit.
"A pleasure to have played next to the best in the world," he wrote on social media. "I wish you the best at your next club."
