The manager of Atletico Madrid exclaims, "We are in the best moment," about Diego Simeone's term.


Atletico Madrid has a strong finish to 2024. They now top the La Liga table, one point ahead of fierce rivals Real Madrid, after 12 straight victories in all competitions.

Enrique Cerezo, the president of Atleti, has viewed the year as a whole as being quite beneficial, according to Diario AS.

"I believe that this year has been fantastic, and there are plenty of reasons to be joyful. It appeared quite difficult just a short while ago, yet we ended the year in first position in La Liga. It is now evident that we can accomplish anything.

Cerezo also discussed the time of Diego Simeone.

"I believe that we are living in the greatest period in Atletico Madrid's history if we consider the last 15 years collectively. We've advanced to two Champions League finals and won La Liga. However, we have also expanded significantly and are becoming larger in many ways. For all of these reasons, I believe that this is the best time in the club's history.
