Diego Simeone has called on Atletico Madrid to end the LaLiga season strongly and reduce the gap to the top teams after their title challenge faltered. They briefly led the league but stumbled with three consecutive losses in March and were eliminated from the Champions League by Real Madrid. Currently sitting third, Atletico look to build momentum as they prepare for their upcoming match against Osasuna. Simeone also highlighted the significance of participating in the Club World Cup, emphasizing their ambition to improve in the future.
"In every season we take steps, last year with the arrival of players, and next year we are going to do it the same way, always thinking about improving."
"The money at stake is for those who are thinking about that competition, for us, it's a very nice tournament, it's exciting to represent Atletico, and we hope to get there in the best way."
"Simeone has faced Ancelotti 28 times across all competitions in his managerial career, winning nine of those matches.
However, a run of three games without a win in March, as well as their exit from the Champions League to Real Madrid in the same month, saw them fall short.
