The possibility that the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo could be an Atlético de Madrid player was categorically rejected by the International Union of Fans Clubs of the Madrid club, which today described the striker as “the antithesis of the values of our athletes. “.
That opposition was also recorded during a team friendly, in which they even grabbed it with DT Diego Simeone threatening to take them “to the wall” in case of passing.
In this context and from the rumors that emerged in Spain about a possible arrival of “CR7” at Atlético de Madrid directed by Cholo, the president of the “colchonero” club, Enrique Cerezo, reassured the fans and discussed in front of various Spanish sports media who that possibility “is almost impossible”.

However, the versions continue to feed and from them a group of Atlético de Madrid fans have made their opinion known through social networks, according to the Italian newspaper Tuttosoprt.
Given the possibility that Cristiano Ronaldo’s signing is more than just a rumor, we express our absolute refusal to a hypothetical incorporation into our club, as we have already publicly stated on 19 July 2019 through social networks “, the fans grouped in the International Union of Supporters Clubs said in a statement.
And they added that Cristiano Ronaldo, current Manchester United player, “is a player he represents the antithesis of the values of our athletes based on effort and humility “.
Cristiano Ronaldo and Cholo Simeone, old rivals but with mutual admiration.
a war song
In the last few hours that anti-Christian fervor of Atlético de Madrid fans has manifested itself with another expression, this time much more optimistic and without any kind of protocol.
It was during a friendly match between the mattress team, against Numancia, in a tribute cup that took place in El Burgo de Osma, a small Spanish town of just 5,000 inhabitants. There were few but they made themselves heard, there is no doubt.
It is that during the match a song dedicated to Simeone began to arrive from the stands, but it was not an encouragement but rather a warning about the possible arrival of CR7.
“Simeone, Simeone … Listen to the fans … If we sign Cristiano, all go to the wall”, was the war cry of the mattress ultras.
The same fans who have conceded the goals of the Portuguese with the shirt of Real Madrid today do not want to know anything about the already legendary footballer who crosses the path.
