Atletico Madrid and coach Diego Simeone are locked in new contract talks.

While there's been claims of Simeone leaving at the end of the season, TMW says talks are now underway over a new arrangement.

The Argentine is willing to extend his stay with Atletico long-term.

Indeed, it's suggested the club has raised the prospect of a new three-year deal for Simeone.

There is a common desire to continue together and an agreement could be found well before Christmas.
