Simeone was coy about the possibility when quizzed about it following Wednesday’s 1-1 draw with Girona in the Copa del Rey. “The only thing I’m thinking about is the upcoming match against Levante,” Simeone told reporters. “I don’t speak about players that aren’t with us, only those that are. “I can’t confirm or deny anything because coaches wait to see what the club can do. “Some players want more minutes, some could be sold by the club, some could arrive. We need to wait until January 31.”
