Diego Godin would have stayed at Atletico Madrid next season if Diego Simeone had his way, but the club’s coach said circumstances took the matter out of his hands.
Uruguay international Godin announced his decision to bring his nine-year stay to an end in an emotional media conference on Tuesday where he revealed he and the club have not reached an agreement to continue.
Simeone, who was visibly upset while listening to Godin reflect on his Atleti career, indicated that he is unhappy with the failure to keep the 33-year-old at the Wanda Metropolitano.
Godin’s departure and anticipated move to join Inter in Serie A prompted criticism from former Atletico captain Gabi, who said the club’s contract policy for players over the age of 30 was rather unfair.
Simeone responded to Gabi’s comments, saying that the club has a way to do things and that must be respected.
