So Trending Twitter, Atletico Madrid Fans Reject Club Plans To Bring Cristiano Ronaldo From Manchester United

JAKARTA - Cristiano Ronaldo is widely reported to want to leave Manchester United. Atlético Madrid tries to take advantage of this situation.

The Spanish La Liga club is reportedly willing to accommodate Cristiano Ronaldo on loan. There are several reasons Atletico has been linked with Cristiano Ronaldo.

First, they can offer the star to appear in the Champions League next season. In addition, if he is close to Atletico, the player nicknamed CR7 can return to the city where he lived for nine years.

But to be able to accept the joining of the former Juventus player, Atletico had to cut the salaries of other players to comply with financial rules in La Liga.

However, Atletico's plan to bring Ronaldo did not go smoothly. They get opposition that actually comes from their own supporters.

Fans rate, bringing in Ronaldo is not the right idea. The reason is that Ronaldo has strengthened Atletico Madrid's rival, Real Madrid, from 2009 to 2018.

For that reason, angry Atletico Madrid fans united using the hashtag #ContraCR7 on Twitter to voice their disapproval. They hope that the move will influence the club's decision not to continue to sign Cristiano Ronaldo.

"If he comes to Atletico I will cancel my two subscription tickets. We are not an asylum to collect garbage," tweeted one supporter.

"Thinking of a man like that wearing an Atleti jersey alone makes me sick. It goes against all intents of being part of Atleti," said another netizen.

"It's better to lose than win with this person," said another netizen in rejection.

While fans rejected the player's arrival, it was reported that Atletico had sold Antoine Griezmann to fund a move for Cristiano Ronaldo.
