Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone will remain at the helm of the club for the next campaign, the newspaper “AS” reports.
In recent weeks, speculation has intensified about a possible separation of the Argentine from the “mattresses”, but such a possibility has been rejected. Simeone had a meeting with the new owners of Madrid from the American investment fund, which recently took over the management of the club. It was at this meeting that the two parties agreed that the coach will continue to lead the club. The coach's current contract is until the end of the next campaign and it will be fulfilled. From “Apollo” are in no hurry to make decisions about the distant future and prefer to focus on the present.
Diego Simeone has been strongly linked with the coaching position at Inter, but this prospect will not be a current possibility for at least another year. It is expected that “Riyadh Air Metropolitano” will have a very busy summer and a serious amount will be invested in new additions, thus posing a serious challenge to the traditional giants Real Madrid and Barcelona. It is with the Catalans that Atletico Madrid will have three new matches in the coming weeks. Madrid will meet Hansi Flick's team consecutively in La Liga and in the 1//4-finals of the Champions League. Diego Simeone's team has already knocked Barca out of the King's Cup.
