Diego Simeone appeared in a lengthy interview on Spanish Radio Cadena Ser on the occasion of renewing his contract with Atletico Madrid, and he talked about many things, including his ambitions that clash with Real Madrid and Barcelona, which praised his star and gave him the credit for winning La Liga last season.
The Argentine coach said: “People want to win. It is not enough for them to finish third, although it makes the club grow, and makes us put ourselves closer to being able to do that, but we have to reach first place.”
He added: “People want to win. It is clear that today’s demand is not the same as before. This is good for us because it will be asked of us but we have to realize the difficulties we face. “We are competing with Real Madrid and Barcelona, who have good players. Without Lewandowski, Barcelona would not have won the last league.”
He continued: “We have to raise the level, but we must be careful. The teams behind us are growing: Girona, Real Sociedad, Athletic Bilbao… You have to be careful about losing the position that gives you the opportunity to compete. When Real Madrid and Barcelona fail, we have to be there.” .
He concluded: “We, in our league, are doing well, but we want more. We want to get into the league and compete and be disruptive. Do I like to be bothered? naturally. Don’t you see the flies? They’re complicated. “They know we are there exchanging roles.”
