Biography
Giuliano Simeone Baldini (Italian: [dʒuˈljaːno simeˈoːne]; born 18 December 2002) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a right midfielder or winger for La Liga club Atlético Madrid and the Argentina national team.
Early life Born in Rome when his father, Diego Simeone, was playing for Lazio, Simeone returned to Argentina to live with his mother at the age of four, and began his career with River Plate. In September 2019, he moved to Atlético Madrid's youth categories; as he had not signed a professional contract with River, the club was unable to retain him, and the move was later approved by FIFA. He then joined the Juvenil squad that same year.
Atlético Madrid B Simeone made his senior debut with Atleti's B-team on 17 January 2021, starting and scoring the opener in a 1–1 Segunda División B away draw against UD Poblense. He scored three further goals in the season, but his team suffered relegation.
