The Portuguese superstar completed a £99million switch to the Serie A side earlier this week after nine years with the Spanish giants.
Agent Jorge Mendes has confirmed that the 33-year-old will see out his career in Turin after the four-year deal was agreed.
Speaking to Football Italia, Mendes said: "I'm very happy for Cristiano.
"Juventus will be his last club club and I'm glad he made this decision.
"With this team he'll close out his marvellous career.
"I thank [President] Andrea Agnelli in particular for his determination and his willingness to negotiate with Real Madrid.
"I also thank [general manager] Beppe Marotta for his professionalism."
Mendes ended his 11-year feud with the Italian club before the mega-money switch was completed.
Ronaldo revealed why he quit the La Liga side in an open letter to the fans.
