The president of Atletico Madrid Enrique Cerezo has categorically denied reports that his team are interested in signing Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo.

“I don’t know who invented this story about Cristiano Ronaldo to Atletico Madrid. It’s definitely not true,” Cerezo told radio show El Partidazo de COPE.

“It’s practically impossible for him to come to Atletico Madrid,” Cerezo added, further claiming that rumours of interest in the 37-year-old had been “invented”.

Ronaldo has this summer, been continually linked with Premier League rivals Chelsea, however, they dropped their interest earlier in the transfer window.
