Diego Simeone extends Atletico Madrid contract until 2027
Diego Simeone now becomes longest serving manager of Atletico
As of late, Diego Simeone, the head coach of Atletico Madrid, has reached an agreement to sign a new, long-term deal with the team.
Simeone’s agent and sister Natalia spoke with the Atletico leadership on Monday afternoon, and early on Monday morning, it was rumoured that Simeone was getting close to signing a new contract this week.
There have been several stories on the duration of the contract being given; two and three years have been mentioned. However, according to RTVE, an agreement has finally been reached that will keep Simeone associated with Los Rojiblancos through 2027.
Simeone’s major promise and indication that he has no plans to leave would be a four-year contract. Given the disagreements between Simeone and Felix, it might also signal the end of Joao Felix’s project at Atletico.
More importantly, Atletico and their supporters would be ecstatic to learn that their most successful coach in history will be retained for a further four years.
