The head coach of Madrid's "Atletico," Diego Simeone, spared no praise for the "Real" team during the press conference and emphasized that this club more than anyone else quickly attracts the best football talent in Spain.
This evening, D. Simeone's team will face the "Real" team for the first time this season. Both clubs have not shown their best game this season, but the "Rojiblancos" strategist is convinced that the "whites" are still the strongest in the world.
"We are preparing for a battle against the best team in the world," said D. Simeone. "Just as 'Barcelona' dominated for five years, now 'Real' is doing it successfully."
"They have already won the Champions League twice in a row and are the current champions of Spain. At the moment, they are better than us - both the results and the titles they have won show that.
They also get all the best young players from different Spanish clubs. 'Real' does not want to give other clubs the opportunity to buy them. Maybe they don't play, but the most important thing is that they have them," said D. Simeone.
D. Simeone no longer touched on the "Real" transfers - over the past few years, they have brought in Dani Ceballos, Marco Asensio, Jesus Vallejo, and the same Theo Hernandez, previously belonging to the "Atletico" club.
