Report | Diego Simeone wanted by Everton and Arsenal
Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone is a wanted man in England as a number of clubs aim to bring the Spanish boss to their club. Simeone seems to be on exit path at the Los Rojiblancos amid reports that he could entertain a Premier League challenge with Arsenal and Everton his top destinations.
According to English media outlet ESPN, Diego Simeone is being chased by a number of Premier League clubs including Arsenal and Everton as both the clubs aim to find a better manager. Arsenal sacked Unai Emery and are in search of a long term replacement whereas Everton are preparing to sack Marco Silva but want to find an able replacement before they pull the trigger.
The Los Rojiblancos have struggled in the La Liga and the UEFA Champions League prompting reports that Simeone could leave the club after 9 years in-charge. The North Londoners recently sacked Unai Emery after Arsenal’ 1-3 loss at home to Eintracht Frankfurt in the UEFA Europa League and have appointed Freddie Ljungberg on a temporary basis as the club chiefs continue to evaluate possible long term candidates.
Simeone is one of the favourite names, with Carlo Ancelotti, Max Allegri, Mikel Arteta and Brendan Rodgers also on the list. Everton, on the other hand, were thrashed by arch-rivals Liverpool in the Merseyside derby and manager Marco Silva is now extremely close to getting sacked. The Toffees will soon make a decision but they want to find a proper replacement before they sack Silva.
Simeone is being evaluated as one of the candidates and could well be offered a deal to sign as the Everton manager in the upcoming future. PSG too want to bring the Atletico Madrid boss to Paris as they feel that a managerial change will be needed if they are to ever succeed in the Champions League. They've also been linked with a move for Carlo Ancelotti and Max Allegri being considered.
