Atletico Madrid also seems to be out of the bidding for Cristiano Ronaldo. Or so said its president Enrique Cerezo, after speaking to several media.
“I don’t know who made up the Cristiano story, but it’s practically impossible for him to come,” Cerezo said. It may be a tactic to not complicate the operation, although Atleti have always maintained that it was a very difficult transfer to make because of the club’s economy.
In recent weeks Cristiano’s name has been on Atletico’s table, thanks to the influence of Jorge Mendes, who has a very good relationship with the club.
Simeone has that attacking position very well covered, to the point that the leaders will try to get rid of one of the strikers on the payroll right now.
Therefore, the club seems to rule out right now the incorporation of United’s Portuguese striker. This afternoon, Cristiano arrived in Manchester to inform the club of his firm intention to leave this summer.
And that the Red Devils have used all their cards to prevent it, such as Alex Ferguson, United’s legendary coach and who has a great relationship with the Portuguese.
