Atletico does not buy Ronaldo

Atletico President Enrique Cerezo rejected the ability to bring striker Cristiano Ronaldo to Wanda Metropolitano this summer.

"I don't know who posted information that Ronaldo could go to Atletico. This is certainly not true. In fact, Ronaldo joined Atletico is impossible," Spain Marca quoted Cerezo on July 26.

Atletico's representative for the first time, he spoke out about rumors to recruit Ronaldo. Earlier, many Madrid fans protested the deal on Twitter by placing the hashtag #Contracr7, in Spanish, "protesting CR7".

Atletico is said to be Ronaldo's most potential landing, after being refused by Bayern, PSG and Chelsea. The movement to Wanda Metropolitano will help Ronaldo to continue to fight in the Champions League as well as compete for the La Liga championship season 2022-2023.

But Marca once said that this deal was unlikely to happen, because Atletico was currently unable to pay Ronaldo, nor did he have money to meet Man Utd transfer fee.

On July 26, Ronaldo returned to the headquarters of Man Utd after missing a 17 -day tour of the club in Thailand and Australia for "family reason". Portuguese superstar and teammates, including rookie Christian Eriksen and Lisandro Martinez, listened to the 90 -minute analysis of coach Erik Ten HAG on the pre -season trip.

Ronaldo also greeted former coach Sir Alex Ferguson and Bryan Robson - who holds the record for the longest captain's captain in the history of Man Utd - at the canteen of Carrington, before the future meeting at 11:30 am, London time.

According to the original schedule, Ferguson and Robson were present at Carrington for lunch with CEO Richard Arnold and former CEO David Gill. However, the presence of the former Scottish coach coincided with the time Ronaldo returned, so the Man Utd Board of Directors adjusted the meeting schedule, in order to arrange the meeting between the two legends of the club.

The Man Utd side did not disclose the level of Ferguson's participation, nor kept information about the negotiations with Ronaldo. But according to the British Sportmail newspaper, the representative of Ronaldo, Jorge Mendes was impressed by the approach and the ability to listen to Arnold. At this meeting, the Man Utd side was maintained not to sell Ronaldo this summer.

Today, Man Utd played a friendly match against Wrexham and Ronaldo is likely not to play.
