The head coach of London Arsenal Mikel Arteta spoke about the head coach of Atletico Madrid Diego Simeone on the eve of the face-to-face duel in the Champions League. Quoting a Spanish expert from the BBC.

“Of course, he is a coach that I look up to and learn from in many situations. I would highlight his passion. Given the time he has been in football, at the same club with the same players, he has retained his grip, the ability to transmit energy and the desire to win.

As coaches, we exist in a very difficult environment and to influence players requires outstanding ability. I don’t know him personally, but everything I’ve heard about him tells me he’s very strong in this business. This is one of the reasons why his team manages to maintain this level for a long time.

Once Simeone plays in the Champions League, Europe’s premier tournament, he can succeed anywhere, including the Premier League. Of course, you need to come to England, try and feel, but I am absolutely sure that his skill is incredible, and his character and willingness to win will help him anywhere,” Arteta said.

The match between Arsenal and Atletico will take place on October 21, at 22:00 Kyiv time.
