Diego Simeone has been one of the best head coaches on the world during the last years, helping Atlético de Madrid to achieve some of the most important conquers in their history. The Argentinian made an incredible competitive team that could fight aside FC Barcelona and Real Madrid for the hegemony in Spain.

Simeone is the trainer of the Colchoneros since January 2012, when he signed his very first contract. Before, he managed Racing Club, River Plate, Estudiantes, San Lorenzo and Catania. But after more than eight years, the link between the Cholo and the club is still remaining and seems not to be ending.

With a contract until June 2022, Simeone is looking forward to signing a new contract, as both him and Atlético de Madrid want to do so. It wasn’t revealed how much money he will be gaining, but it is supposed that he will be the best paid manager on the world, as occurred during the last years.

Simeone gains more than $40 million, being the best paid coach during the last season. Just to compare, Josep Guardiola earns $25 million at Manchester City, being the second one, and Zinedine Zidane gains $23 at Real Madrid. The fact of paying so much is the way in which Atlético wants to secure Simeone staying for long at the club.
