Cristiano Ronaldo could potentially have a move to Atletico Madrid ruined by a couple of recent Chelsea transfer flops.
The Portuguese forward has requested to leave Manchester United this summer with a number of clubs having been linked with a potential swoop for his services. Bayern Munich, Chelsea and Real Madrid were all of those immediately rumoured to be in the running for Ronaldo’s signature but it appears unlikely that any of the trio will complete a move for the 37-year-old between now and deadline day.
A new contender for Ronaldo emerged over the past few days with Atletico Madrid the latest to be linked with a move. Atleti boss Diego Simeone is thought to be a big fan of the forward, with there being hope that he could have a similar impact to that of Luis Suarez during the Uruguayan’s spell at the club.
