Atletico Madrid president Enrique Cerezo was more than happy to mingle with One Direction singer Niall Horan during the club's Champions League outing against Chelsea.

The Irish singer, who rose to fame as part of a five-piece boy band on The X Factor, watched Tuesday night's goalless draw at the Vicente Calderon.

The club's Twitter account posted a photo of the Irishman with Cerezo holding an Atletico shirt with 'One Direction' printed on the back. A message read: "Thanks @NiallOfficial for the visit! It's been a luxury to have a @onedirection member at the Calderón! ;) #UCL."

Twenty-year-old Horan has met a number of famous footballers, including Barcelona star Lionel Messi and Brazil international Neymar.
