SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) Diego Simeone, Atletico Madrid manager:

"I would like to thank the club because their trust from that day in December 2011, when they called me, to recuperate all that happened to us and that is happening now. I would also like to thank the players, all of them. Those who were here when I started and have moved on, those who are still here, because without their credibility, play, competence, and trust, this moment would not have arrived for us."

SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) Enrique Cerezo, Atletico Madrid president:

"It wasn't been complicated to agree to continue together for five more years. In these next years, you will still be making history in our club, following the trail of your idol Luis Aragones, with who you share the philosophy of win, win, and win again. Diego, in the name of the Atletico fans, many thanks for sharing with us these unforgettable years. We are convinced that with your help our beloved club will continue growing."

SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) Diego Simeone, Atletico Madrid manager:

"Soon will be the opening of the new stadium. We are very excited about this opening. I think the club is absolutely growing. I choose to be where I am, that's for sure. In our lives sometimes it is difficult to choose, sometimes because they don't let you, sometimes because you can't. But I'm choosing, and I choose Atletico because I think the club is still growing."
