After a troublesome spell under Felix Magath, the Brazilian playmaker admitted his mistakes and hinted towards a possible reconciliation.
Brazilian international, Diego, joined Atletico Madrid after an inconsistent year in Wolfsburg colours. However, he looks to have found his former form with Los Rojiblancos despite seeing his stay in Madrid marked by injuries.
With the 2011/12 season in its final phase, the 27-year-old’s future lies in balance; a fact admitted by the player himself.
The former Juventus attacking midfielder admitted that he has no idea where he will be heading in the next season, stating that he is content with life in the Spanish capital but will not be complaining if he finds himself playing under Felix Magath again.
Reflecting on his relationship with the Bundesliga side’s manager, Diego insisted that he has no problems with Magath and acknowledged that he made mistakes in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904.
"Anything can happen," the Ribeirao Preto born player told Kicker. "I am very happy in Madrid, but I also felt very good at VfL - despite all the problems.”
"I've made many mistakes in Wolfsburg. But the relationship with the coach is fine."
Diego is on the verge of returning to first team action after being out for over five weeks, suffering a muscle tear in his right thigh as Atletico Madrid drew with Sporting Gijon.
He stated that he is close to full match fitness after working hard in the training sessions.
"I am feeling just fine," http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Diego-c11058 said while talking to Madrid-based Spanish sports daily, AS. "In the last three training sessions I made a huge effort and I am close [to my return].”
"It is hard to say when I will be able to play again but right now I have a good feeling, although I cannot make an estimation yet.”
El Cholo will need the services of the creative midfielder in the Madrid derby against Getafe over the weekend. After beating Athletic Bilbao in midweek, Los Rojiblancos suffered a 1-0 away defeat against La Liga strugglers, Real Zaragoza.
With 9 La Liga matches remaining, the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vicente-c36001 Calderon-based outfit cannot afford to drop more points to fulfil their European ambitions.
