A champion as a footballer and as a coach of his team, today's birthday boy is Diego Simeone. Cholo's football career has been littered with successes, the most interesting being with different teams. Spanish champion with Atletico Madrid, Italian champion with Lazio and UEFA Cup winner with Inter. He also won the European Super Cup with the Roman Eagles. His coaching career was no less successful and bizarre. Argentine champion in the Apertura with Estudiantes and in the Clausura with River Plate. He also won the La Liga title with the Atletico Madrid team. One of the most successful coaches in the history of the Dushechies, unfortunately for him reaching only 2 lost Champions League finals to date. He also won the Europa League twice and the European Super Cup with Madrid. Diego Simeone turns 54 years old today.
Juan Mata was part of the incredible Spanish generation that won every major championship along the way. World and European champion with La Furia, Mata also captured many successes with Chelsea - Champions League, Europa League and FA Cup. Turkish champion with Galatasaray in 2023, the Spaniard is currently in the twilight of his career. Happy 36th birthday!
