Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone has declared that he will never coach cross-town rivals Real Madrid.
The Argentinian coach is a cult figure to the Atletico fans having guided the team to the 2013-14 La Liga title, along with their 2012 Europa League triumph. Simeone, 46, has also guided the team to two Champions League finals.
With a glowing resume, Simeone has attracted the eyeballs of some of Europe's top clubs but has insisted that he will never make the move across town.
"I will never coach Real Madrid," Simeone told Onda Cero. "It is logical because of feelings. They wouldn't call me either.
"I am young, maybe someday I will lead another Spanish team."
As for his aspirations, Simeone revealed that his dream is to manage the Argentina national team before calling it a day.
"At some point, I would like to coach Argentina, but I have to improve as a coach," he added.
"I would like to do it in the final stretch of my career, if they will still have me."
He added that he struggles to take time away from thinking about football.
"When I go to the movies, I end up sitting there and thinking about where we need to attack better, which players I should put together, how to calm a player down and which players I need to speak with," he said. "I have trouble sleeping and when I wake up my whole body hurts. I'll sleep for 15 minutes and then be wide awake. When we win but we have played poorly, I get in a bad mood."
