The son of Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone has backed rumours of a move for Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo.

Ronaldo is being linked with Atletico this week.

And Gianluca Simeone, the middle of three Simeone brothers, has 'liked' a social media post discussing the move.

The post read: "Cristiano Ronaldo decides to return to Madrid… to play for Atleti. Jorge Mendes, his agent, presses for CR7 to reach the Metropolitan. Cholo's OK is there. The least thought story..."

Gianluca, now with Xerez, 'liked' the post showing support for the move for the former Real Madrid star.
