Reports in Spain are surfacing that Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone knows when he'll leave the club, and who he could manage next despite putting pen-to-paper on a new contract back in March 2015 extending his stay till 2020.
Spanish outlet El Confidencial claim that the Argentine isn't expecting to see his contract out as he's preparing to leave in June 2018, two years before his deal expires.
They continue to add by saying that the clubs board membesr are well aware of Simeone's desire to leave his role at Vincente Calderon. And it's suggested that he already has a new job lined up.
It's believed Italy will be his next destination with Inter Milan. Yes, Inter, the team that just appointed Frank de Boer. It appears the writing is on the wall for the Dutchman before getting his foot in the door.

The substance behind these reports comes from his relationship with fellow compatriot and Inter legend Javier Zanetti, who even went onto say via La Nacion; "Inter and Simeone will meet again." Ominous signs indeed.
What's more, IF, he does end up leaving, it could spell the end for Antoine Griezmann.
The French starlet went on record confessing he'd consider leaving if his manager would quit, and even though he's committed his future to the club, he continues to be subject to heavy transfer speculation with both Manchester United and Paris St-Germain. As Jose Mourinho has identified him as Wayne Rooney's long-term successor.

The La Liga's side pain may be United's gain.
