Javier Tebas would ‘love to see Cristiano Ronaldo back in LaLiga’

Atletico Madrid

Cristiano Ronaldo has been linked with a move to Atletico Madrid in recent days. League president Javier Tebas would endorse a return of the Portugal international to the Primera Division.

“I would love to see Cristiano Ronaldo back in LaLiga,” said Tebas. “I don’t know whether Atletico Madrid can realize the commitment of the five-time world footballer.” Atleti would have to make room: “Some players would have to go.”

Atletico Madrid are said to have been willing to ditch Antoine Griezmann and Alvaro Morata in order to create financial leeway for Cristiano Ronaldo. However, according to Spanish media reports, Morata remains in the Wanda Metropolitano. There is also no buyer in sight for Griezmann.

It is unlikely that Cristiano Ronaldo will move to Atletico. President Enrique Cerezo stated: “It’s practically impossible for him to join Atletico Madrid.” In addition, fans of the Colchoneros protested against a commitment from the ex-real superstar.
