Atletico Madrid have officially announced that Diego Simeone has renewed his contract with Los Rojiblancos until 2024.

Since joining the club as coach in 2011, Simeone has won eight titles with Atletico, whom he led to LaLiga Santander glory twice, the last time being in 2020/21.

Simeone's assistant Nelson Vivas, fitness coach Oscar 'El Profe' Ortega, goalkeeping coach Pablo Vercellone and third coach Hernan Bonvicini have all renewed their respective contracts too.

Simeone can now set new records with Atletico Madrid, with whom he has won 316 games, figures that not even club legend Luis Aragones could reach.
