Simeone and Atletico are close to a renewal agreement LaLiga Santander Cholo would charge more than Griezmann

The negotiations began in the summer and are about to bear fruit with the signing of a new contract for Diego Simeone at Atletico Madrid.

He would become the best paid person in the entire workforce, earning even more than Antoine Griezmann whose renewal was the news of last summer at Atleti.

According to Radio MARCA, from the coach's side negotiations are such that the contract includes clauses that facilitate a possible exit in the case of not fulfilling the entire contract.

The club understands that Simeone is a key piece to give stability to their project, with Gil Marin as the main supporter of this contract extension.
