Simeone: A Red and White Legend with No Expiry Date
Cholo Simeone celebrated his 55th birthday, reaffirming his unwavering commitment and passion for Atlético de Madrid. Since his arrival in 2011, he has transformed the club into a powerhouse, taking it to a dimension previously unimaginable.
His leadership has been instrumental in winning major titles, including two La Liga titles, one Copa del Rey, one Spanish Super Cup, and one European Super Cup, in addition to two Europa League titles and one continental Super Cup.
Simeone has been key to the club’s economic growth, enabling a significant increase in budget and facilitating the transition to the Metropolitano. His commitment extends until 2027, a horizon he envisions with enthusiasm, imagining new challenges and consolidating a long-term project.
His figure is synonymous with Atlético, a symbol as important as the shield itself. Despite the criticism and challenges overcome, his connection with the team and the board remains intact.
The possible arrival of Julián Alvarez last summer demonstrates his vision for the future, seeking to rejuvenate the squad and keep the team at the top. The next transfer market is expected to be key to continuing this regeneration process. Simeone, a red and white icon, remains the first fan and an undisputed leader, on his way to becoming one of the longest-serving coaches in football history.
