Atletico Madrid Boss Diego Simeone Reveals Fernando Torres' Future Will Be Sorted Soon
The future of Fernando Torres will become clear "in the coming days," according to Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone.
Atletico Madrid head coach Diego Simeone has promised there will be an announcement soon on the future of Fernando Torres.
The striker, on loan from AC Milan, stated at the end of last month that there was "nothing new" on talks over a new contract, with his current deal set to expire at the end of the season.
It was reported earlier this year that Simeone was not prepared to sanction an extension to Torres' stay, but five goals in eight appearances from the 32-year-old has prompted speculation that a new deal has indeed been agreed upon.
And Simeone said on Friday that Atletico would confirm its decision soon, telling a media conference: "Torres did a very good job [against Barcelona], he will play as a starter again. Over the coming days the club will inform on what the decision is in this regard."
