‘I am very flattered to be asked to represent Armani,' says Ronaldo. ‘Giorgio Armani is a legend in the fashion world and I have long been a fan of his work.'

‘I am very pleased with the pictures we have done together - they are certainly striking and are full of attitude and a spirit I can relate to.'

Striking is indeed the word...

And Mr Armani seems equally pleased with this new partnership.

‘Cristiano is a great looking young man with the perfect physique of an athlete,' says the designer. ‘For me, he is the essence of youth - spontaneous, exciting, a real maverick.'

‘It is for his energy that I have chosen Cristiano to become the new face of Armani Jeans and Emporio Armani Underwear - for his youthful, exciting, and yes, sexy attitude.'

The pictures were shot by renowned photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, on location in Madrid.

The Spring/Summer campaign is set for official release in February, so get set to see a lot more of Ronaldo in the coming months.

Phew. We've suddenly come over all flushed...
