Atletico Madrid president Enrique Cerezo has said a move for Cristiano Ronaldo is "practically impossible" for the Spanish side.
Ronaldo has been linked with a move away from Manchester United after just one season, and is understood to want Champions League football. The Portugal international missed United's pre-season tour of Australia and Thailand for family reasons, but has returned for showdown talks ahead of the upcoming season.
Erik ten Hag has consistently stressed the veteran is part of his plans as the manager looks to lead the English club back into the top four. And, while Ronaldo reportedly informed the club of his desire to leave, no move has materialised.
