Simeone rules out Everton job, promising 'a couple of years at least' at Atletico

The Toffees have been linked with an audacious move to bring the Atletico Madrid boss to Goodison Park, but he insists he is going nowhere.

Diego Simeone has ruled out the prospect of leaving Atletico Madrid and taking over as manager of Everton.

The Premier League club have been linked with an audacious attempt to bring the Argentine to Goodison Park to replace Ronald Koeman, who was sacked last month.

Simeone admitted he was close to leaving Atletico after their Champions League final defeat to Real Madrid in 2016 and there has been speculation this could be his last season in the Spanish capital.
