Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone insists he's not heard from Arsenal about succeeding Arsene Wenger.
Atletico meet the Gunners tonight in the first-leg of their Europa League semifinal.
The Argentine insists he is happy in the Spanish capital ahead of his side's Europa League semi-final first leg clash against Arsenal in north London on Thursday night.
When directly asked about the vacancy, Simeone said: "No, I haven't spoken with anyone at Arsenal."
Simeone also expressed his great respect for Wenger, who will call time on his Arsenal stint after 22 years.
"The first thing that comes to mind is admiration [Wenger]. He's had to reinvent himself. I see myself as a young coach and I want to observe him and learn from him. The position he has occupied in football is wonderful.
"Given the love he [Wenger] has for Arsenal he will want his team to continue winning.
"It's always great to take ideas from a coach like Wenger. In terns of Diego he is just as motivated as our backup keeper. We are all motivated. Arsenal will demand us to be at our best."
