The Portuguese completed his blockbuster transfer from Real Madrid to Turin earlier this month, bringing the curtain down on an illustrious nine-year spell at the Bernabeu.
He will be paraded at 6.30pm at the Juventus Stadium ahead of the start of the new Serie A season.
Ronaldo who had been holidaying in Greece after exiting the World Cup, returned to Madrid on Friday to say goodbyes to friends and staff of Real Madrid. He is expected to fly to Turin on Monday for the presentation to Juventus fans.
Juventus signed Ronaldo for four years, for a consideration of € 100 million payable in two financial years, in addition to the solidarity contribution provided by FIFA regulations and additional costs of € 12 million.
