The record that Simeone will reach at Atlético Madrid

Simeone arrived at the club in 2011 as a bet for the colchoneros. He knew how to wear the shirt when he was a player and now he directs the white and red team from the substitute bench. Some named him with a very defensive scheme, but he still put up great numbers on the team. The coach has everything agreed to renew his contract and in December 2023 he will celebrate 12 years at the institution. Which makes him the technical director who has lasted the longest at his club today.
