Simeone signs contract extension until 2024.
Our coach, who arrived at the club in 2011, is the person who has managed a LaLiga team for the most consecutive seasons. Since he took over, the Argentine has won more trophies than any other manager in our club's history (eight). The members of his coaching staff have also renewed their contracts.
This year, Simeone guided us to the 11th LaLiga title in our club’s history. In the process he also became the winningest coach in Atlético de Madrid’s history (316). He has so far overseen 527 games – losing only 16% of them.
The Argentine is about to kick off his 11th season as our manager – making him the person who has coached a team for the most consecutive seasons in LaLiga. Apart from the eight trophies we've won in this period, we've also qualified for nine consecutive seasons for the Champions League, something unprecedented at our club.
The members of his coaching staff have also signed contract extensions until 2024. Óscar Ortega, Pablo Vercellone, Nelson Vivas and Hernán Bonvinvini have also played a big role in our recent success.
With this contract extension, we continue our exciting project with Diego Pablo Simeone. Fantastic news for the Atleti family.
¡Ole ole ole! Cholo Simeone
