Atleti fans hold anti-Ronaldo banner and Koke has selfie with fan before corner

Atletico Madrid may have ruled out a move for Cristiano Ronaldo but the fans are still very keen to stress they don't want the player.

The former Real Madrid man has been heavily linked with a move away from Manchester United, with Atleti becoming the latest club to have been linked with him.

However, Atleti president Enrique Cerezo poured cold water on these rumours, saying: "I don't know who invented this story about Cristiano Ronaldo to Atletico Madrid. It's definitely not true.

"It's practically impossible for him to come to Atletico Madrid."

You'd think that would be the end of the matter but Atletico Madrid fans attending their pre-season friendly at Numancia.

A banner reading 'CR7 NOT WELCOME' was draped behind one of the goals, adding to the Atleti faithful's initial protests when the reports were first revealed.

The match, which Diego Simeone's side won 4-0, was very eventful and was briefly halted for a bizarre reason.

As he prepared to take a corner from the right, club captain Koke was stopped by a fan sat on the sidelines.

Seconds later it became clear the fan wanted a selfie with the 30-year-old, who obliged before swinging the corner into the box.

No danger of any Atletico Madrid fan asking Ronaldo for a selfie any time soon.
