Diego Simeone to 'think about' Atletico Madrid future

Simeone's men were beaten by their city rivals in the European decider for the second time in three years, suffering a 5-3 penalty shoot-out loss in Milan on Saturday.

The Argentinian has been linked with numerous clubs, while publicly expressing his desire to one day coach Serie A outfit Inter.

Speaking after Atletico's loss, which came following a 1-1 draw through extra time, Simeone said he would take time to think about his future.

"It's a moment for me to think about things," he said.

Simeone added: "I'm thinking about thinking, nothing more than that.

"I answer what I feel. It's logical after a defeat like today.

"I am proud of my players, who have made an extraordinary effort in a tough Champions League."
