Simeone back Real for title
Posted Thursday, June 11, 2015 by Foxsports.com
Los Blancos have not won the league title since the 2011/12 season when they were guided to glory by Jose Mourinho, in what is their lone success in the last seven campaigns.
It's Barcelona who have dominated proceedings in recent times, winning five titles in seven seasons, while Atletico triumphed in the 2013/14 season. However, Simeone feels that will soon change.
When asked by AS how he thought the title race would unravel, Simeone said:
"Dangerously complicated for any team other than Real Madrid because it can't happen that Real Madrid wins only one league after seven years.
"So, I see [the title race] dangerously prepared for Real Madrid, sadly."
Simeone is hopeful of boosting his squad ahead of next season, with Juventus striker Carlos Tevez one of a number of players linked with Atleti.
"I haven't spoken with him, but I know that the club is talking to his agent," Simeone said of Tevez.
"I'd be excited to have a player like Tevez as he is ideal for our style of play and our mentality."
