Diego Simeone: 'Premier League is attractive'

Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone admits that the prospect of managing in the Premier League is "attractive".

Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone has admitted that he is keen to manage in the Premier League in the future.

The Argentine has been linked with a switch to the English top flight in recent seasons after his success with the La Liga outfit, which has seen him win five titles - including the league, the Copa del Rey and the Europa League - since he took the reins in 2011.

Simeone had been in the frame to take over at Chelsea earlier this year before Antonio Conte was instead recruited for the role.

Asked about the possibility of managing an English club in the future, Conte told reporters: "I consider myself a young coach. So I feel that it is possible.

"There are many of the leagues provide some great challenges. Certainly, the English league, the Italian league are attractive for me."

Conte is currently with his squad on a pre-season tour of Australia.
