Argentinian international Giuliano Simeone, a 23-year-old winger, has stated he would never play for Real Madrid, citing his strong connection to Atlético de Madrid. The discussion began when he dismissed the possibility of joining Boca Juniors. Simeone then compared that hypothetical move to playing for Real Madrid, and when asked directly about it, he described the prospect as impossible. He reiterated that there was not a chance of a transfer, mentioning his loyalty to both Atlético de Madrid in Spain and River Plate in Argentina.

Simeone, who joined his current club in July 2022, has a contract that runs until 2030. In 26 LaLiga appearances this season, he has scored 3 goals and provided 6 assists. He has 9 caps and one goal for Argentina. His current market value is €40.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
