Simeone says his focus is solely on the games ahead

Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone has made it clear that he will not waste his time worrying about the club’s business in the January transfer market, insisting that his focus is solely on the upcoming matches.

Defenders Diego Godin and Lucas Hernandez have been linked with moves away from the Wanda Metropolitano while Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata has been touted as a possible target for the La Liga giants.

However, Simeone is not at all flustered by the rumours regarding the future of some of his key players, saying that he is focused on his team’s Cope del Rey second leg fixture against Girona.

“I live in training to training, match by match, day by day,” said the Atletico head coach.

“I focus on looking for those who can hurt Girona. The rest will happen no matter how much you analyse or not analyse, think or not think. No matter what you want or not, what will happen will happen. That is our reality.”

Simeone refused to comment on reports linking Atletico with Morata but did outline the value of experienced centre-half Godin.

“The importance of Godin for us is clear,” Simeone added.

“I hope he continues in the same way because he has had a very good level in the last three matches.”
