Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone (56)'s love story with his wife, who is 17 years younger, is being re-examined.

"Coach Simeone fell in love with his wife coming out of the restaurant's bathroom," Spain's Libertad Dichtal reported on the 3rd (Korea Standard Time).

"The meeting between Simeone and his current wife Carla Pereira was like a scene from a romantic comedy film," the media said.

According to the media, Simeone, who was having a hard time after his first marriage failure, met his current wife in front of a restaurant bathroom that he accidentally stopped by. While waiting to use the bathroom, I came across an attractive blonde woman coming out of the door.

"I've been waiting for you," Simeone said at the time, as a momentary base. It was a comment with the meaning of waiting for your turn to go to the bathroom and the meaning of waiting for a person named you.

This witty word moved Pereira's mind. She gave Simeone the phone number. After that, the two quickly fell in love and began living together. Simeone tied the knot in 2019 after her divorce process was finalized.

Born in 1987, Carla Pereira is an Argentine and 17 years younger than Simeone and a businessman from a model. They have two daughters, Francesca, 9, and Valentina, 6. Unlike his charismatic appearance on the ground, Simeone is known as a "daughter fool" at home.

Recently, Simeone had the pleasure of becoming a grandfather at 55. All three sons of his ex-wife are active as soccer players, of which the second son Gianluca was born.

Meanwhile, Atletico, led by head coach Simeone, had high expectations last season with big recruits such as Julian Alvarez and Conor Gallagher joining, but they couldn't reach the championship. He ranked third in La Liga after Barcelona and Real Madrid. He is also in third place this season with 37 points (11 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses) through the 18th round.
