But even if he didn’t celebrate with him Atlético de Madrida situation that makes him unusually vulnerable to criticism, the title most desired by Cholo was won in 2025 and he shows it with pride: he became the grandfather of Faustinothe firstborn of his son Gianluca and his partner, the model Eva Bargiela.
The record coach of the Colchoneros, who has held office since December 2011who strengthened a club that was in relegation until he turned it into a power at European level, is known for his discipline and his passion for football, but also for giving everything for his team.

If Simeone’s mantra was to always talk about the team and the group as core values, this DNA was present again on Christmas night, celebrated with the family, and this Saturday in the Basilica of Luján, where Gianluca and Eva Faustino baptized. It was a day full of emotions, full of faith and hugs, and the country’s most popular temple added extra mysticism. The chosen setting was not a coincidence: this year Carolina Baldini went to Luján with the traditional pilgrimage that takes place in October and received encouragement from Gianluca halfway through.
The only one who missed these unforgettable days was Giovanni Simeonewho had to play with him this Saturday Turin in view of Cagliari (They lost 1-2 at home) because, unlike Spain, the Italian Serie A didn’t stop. The striker is also aware that his wife, the Italian presenter, is pregnant. Giulia Coppiniwho will give Cholo and Caro their second grandchild in a few weeks.
