Atlético de Madrid manager Diego Simeone has ruled out the signing of Cristiano Ronaldo. Diego Simeone: “Cristiano Ronaldo for Atléti? Ronaldo is an absolute benchmark for Real Madrid…”, “I wouldn’t see Martín Palermo or Riquelme playing in River Playe or Ortega in Boca. That’s very clear”. Diego Simeone on Cristiano Ronaldo: “Cristiano Ronaldo’s possible arrival at Atlético in the summer? The little birds told you anything far from what happened”, “People speak sometimes to tell what they want to tell, not reality.”. Simeone remained quiet on the speculation at the time, though supporters made their thoughts clear by unfurling a “CR7 NOT WELCOME” banner during pre-season. However, with Ronaldo remaining at Old Trafford until at least January, Simeone says the 37-year-old making a move to Atleti was never feasible due to the unrest it would have caused among the fanbase.
