Following Cristiano Ronaldo’s move from Real Madrid to Juventus, interest in Italy’s Serie A has increased tenfold around the planet.

So, um, does any of this matter?

All Aboard The Milan And Juventus Transfer Merry-Go-Round

You thought Cristiano Ronaldo to Juventus would be the biggest transfer of the summer? You were wrong.

Two of Italy’s biggest clubs have been busy cooking up something far more interesting and — because this is Serie A — something infinitely more complicated. Juventus and Milan have decided to lock themselves into a three-player exchange deal involving loans, buy-outs and big, big wages. So, what’s actually happening?

Ronaldo’s Juve Arrival Triggers Madness: Higuain Joins Milan; Bonucci Returns To Old Lady

Cristiano Ronaldo reported for his first day of preseason training with Juventus yesterday, and although the Portuguese legend looked pretty chummy in photographs with fellow striker Gonzalo Higuain, the arrival of The 120 Million Dollar Man obviously spelled the end of the Argentine’s two-year stay in Turin.
