Cristiano Ronaldo and Antoine Griezmann will stay at their respective clubs, according to La Liga president Javier Tebas.

Ronaldo cast doubt over his future at Real Madrid after their third consecutive Champions League success last month.

Meanwhile, Griezmann’s future at Atletico Madrid is uncertain, although the forward is set to announce whether he is staying at the club in the coming days, amid Barcelona’s interest.

But Tebas expects both players to remain at their respective clubs heading into next season.

‘I think Cristiano stays at Real Madrid and Antoine Griezmann stays at Atletico,’ he told Onda Cero.

While the departure of Ronaldo would be considered a blow to La Liga, Tebas insisted he was unconcerned.

‘Cristiano Ronaldo leaving, out of 10, I’m worried about a five or a four,’ he said.

‘It wouldn’t be so dramatic for the league. We are becoming more independent of great players,’ he concluded.
