Sampdoria have taken inspiration from Juventus' Cristiano Ronaldo announcement to pull off a marquee signing of their very own.

The Serie A side confirmed on Thursday the signing of midfielder Ronaldo Vieira from Leeds United for a reported fee of £7 million.

And Sampdoria have taken the time to announce their new arrival by mimicking Juventus' announcement of Ronaldo's transfer from Real Madrid last month.

The Blucerchiati uploaded a silhouette of the player - with the word "Ronaldo" spread across the image - with his surname "Vieira" barely visible underneath.
