In his new adventures as Atletico Madrid Coach, Diego Pablo Simeone will rendezvous with old friends in his third spell at the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vicente-c36001 Calderon.
Simeone left http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Argentina-c2841 for Madrid on Sunday morning and will arrive in the Spanish capital late on Monday morning. He will be presented to Vicente Calderon faithful on Tuesday at 12:30 pm.
However, he will have to wait for his first training session as Atletico boss, with the first team meeting scheduled for Thursday, December 29.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Diego-c11058 returns to the Iberian Peninsula after a hiatus of six years. His first adventures in an Atletico jersey were between 1994 and 1997, while his second stint with the club lasted only a year-and-a-half, playing for the club from 2003 to 2005. 
It was in the latter time period where he met several current first team players. Antonio Lopez, Gabi and Luis Amaranto Perea are the three members of the roster who have shared the locker room with their new boss.
All the aforementioned players have taken different career paths to return to the Vicente Calderon in this juncture of time.
Gabi left Los Rojiblancos to play for Getafe and Real Zaragoza, only to return at the beginning of the current season. Meanwhile, Antonio Lopez and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Luis-Perea-c22787 have stayed at the club all this time.
The aforementioned three players, along with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Álvaro-Domínguez-c5285, are the four captains of current roster as decided by Gregorio Manzano at the beginning of this summer.

At that time, Luis Amaranto Perea made his way to Europe after successful seasons with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Boca-Juniors-c38658.
However, after enjoying stellar campaigns with Atletico Madrid, Someone’s second term with the club was not as successful as initially expected. At the age of 33, he was an important squad player appearing in 28 games and scoring twice in La Liga.
He lost the plot in the second season where he was given a relaxed fringe role. After only eight games and playing 325 minutes, he left the club in the winter transfer market.
Interestingly, he left Atletico to join http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Racing-Club-c40301 where he hung up his boots in 2006 and later became coach.
