Napoli striker Giovanni Simeone has publicly admitted that he would not like to play under his father Diego Simeone.
It is noteworthy that the famous Argentinean currently heads Atlético Madrid.
“Luckily I still have many years ahead of me on the football field and I hope to one day move to Spain. I hope that one day when I want to see my father, I won’t have to take a plane (laughs).
If we talk about moving to Atlético, I would not want to play in this team. Understand that when your father is the coach, it is very difficult for you to join the team.
If they want to talk about the coach, and I'm there... I don't know. It's hard to join the team if you're the coach's son. It seems to me that this situation is simpler for the coach: if the son plays well, let him go on the field, and if not, then no", - Simeone Jr. said in a commentary to Marca.
