City and the Reds had both lined up Simeone
as potential saviour if their seasons turned sour and he had explored
the possibility of breaking his contract.
Intermediaries had even told City they were his preferred destination should Manuel Pellegrini be axed.
But Simeone, who has been taking English lessons, has had a change of heart – and it is partly down to Fernando Torres.
The £50m Chelsea flop is about to sign for Atletico
and that transfer has helped convince Simeone they are serious about
the future
He wanted Torres signed last summer but missed out as the Blues striker went to AC Milan on a two-year loan instead.That did not sit well with Simeone, who is a huge fan of the former Liverpool star and saw him as a key part of his rebuild after the sale of Diego Costa to Chelsea.
