Atletico Madrid president Cerezo makes clear stand on sale rumours

Atletico Madrid president Enrique Cerezo insists the club is not for sale.

Atletico has been mentioned as a target for Qatari interest.

But Cerezo says: "Before you tell me anything, the club is not being sold, it is not for sale and we do not have conversations with anyone.

"So resounding and so clear. It is not sold in the short or long term."

On player contract talks, Cerezo continued: “There is a lot left for the contracts, all the renewals are underway and when they come to fruition it will be said.

"(Antoine) Griezmann? I don't think we are in talks with him now but if he has to renew, he will renew."

“You can compare him with the best, plus the best at Atlético, Luis Aragonés, Gárate…".
