Villarreal president Fernando Roig has hit out at Atletico Madrid.

Atletico are part of the Super League breakaway.

"No one is expelled from LaLiga, they leave," Roig said, "I have not spoken with anyone from these three clubs. We should have talked, they don't even consider us. Atlético de Madrid at other times asked Villarreal for favours and they did call us on the phone to do things, but now, no one has called me.

"They ignore Villarreal at this time, at another time they have asked for help. It is not that relationships are touched, they are ignored by them. It is a surprise that it has not been said in LaLiga, that we make up 42 teams."
