Simeone Stays Put: Atlético Madrid Poised to Extend a Legend

Update on Simeone Renewal

A Spanish sports daily reports that Atlético Madrid is planning to renew manager Diego Simeone's contract.

Simeone's current deal runs through the end of next season.

According to Marca, the club's owners have no intention of parting ways with the coach who is in his 14th year in charge.

Matteo Alemany, Atlético's sporting director, and Enrique Cerezo, the club's president, are expected to table a fresh offer to extend Simeone's contract beyond 2027.

If a renewal is agreed, it would mark his ninth contract with the club.

Simeone has guided Atlético Madrid to eight titles since 2011, reinforcing the team's reputation for resilience and sustained success.

The development keeps alive a project that blends stability with competitive ambition in Spanish football.

Punchline: If patience were a trophy, Simeone would own the entire cabinet.

Punchline: Contracts grow on trees—Simeone just keeps pruning them to keep the club evergreen.
