Relations between Atletico head coach Diego Simeone and sporting director Mateu Alemany have deteriorated since the winter "transfer window." Sport24.az, referring to Sport.es, reports that the disagreements that have arisen may affect the Argentine's future at the club, despite his contract until 2027.
According to the source, the Madrid representative has begun looking for another specialist to replace Simeone, who may leave the club at the end of the season. It is emphasized that the main factor in this decision may not be any disagreement with Alemany, but the results of the team. The Argentine must try to improve the unsuccessful results in recent months.
Bournemouth head coach Andoni Iraola is the main candidate to replace Simeone. However, the Spanish specialist has not yet expressed his opinion on this matter.
It should be noted that the Argentine specialist has been "at the helm" of the Madrid club since December 2011. Under his leadership, Atletico celebrated the Spanish championship twice and won the Europa League.
After 22 rounds, the team is in third place in the Spanish championship with 45 points. In the Champions League, it finished the main stage in 14th place and will play in the play-offs.
