Simeone: `I do not want Torres to stay at Atletico!`
The Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone has revealed that he does not intend to insist Fernando Torres to renew the contract with the club that expires this summer. At the press conference before the Europa League against Copenhagen, the Argentine specialist was visibly annoyed by a series of journalist questions, the latter laconically admitting that he was not ready to cooperate for a new Torres contract.
Here`s how the conversation between the two of them went:
Journalist: `Griezmann will probably continue with you next season.
Simeone: `Is this a statement or a question?
Journalist: `You did everything you could to make it happen. Are you ready to let Torres stay?`
Simeone: `I do not understand the comparison. What is the goal of this comparison?`
Journalist: `I would like to know if you are willing to try to keep Fernando Torres for another year.`
Simeone: `No.`
Journalist: `Thank you.`
