Giuliano Simeone Baldini (born 18 December 2002) is a professional footballer who plays as a forward for La Liga club Atlético Madrid. Born in Italy, he plays for the Argentina national team.

Early life

[edit]

Born in Rome when his father was playing for Lazio, Simeone returned to Argentina to live with his mother at the age of four,[2] and began his career with River Plate.[3] In September 2019, he moved to Atlético Madrid's youth categories;[4] as River did not have a professional contract, the club was unable to retain him, and the move was later approved by FIFA.[5] He then joined the Juvenil squad.

Club career

[edit]

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.[6] He scored three further goals in the season, but his team suffered relegation.

After spending the 2021 pre-season with the first team,[7] Simeone returned to the B's now in Tercera División RFEF, scoring eight goals in 11 matches between the months of November and December.[8] He debuted with the senior Atlético Madrid side in a 0–0 La Liga tie with Granada on 20 April 2022, coming on as a sub in the 91st minute.[9]

On 4 July 2022, Simeone was loaned to Segunda División side Real Zaragoza for the season.[10] He scored his first professional goal two months later, netting the opener in a 2–1 home loss against CD Lugo.

On 21 July 2023, Simeone renewed his contract with Atleti until 2028, and moved on loan to Deportivo Alavés in the top tier, for one year.[11] On 6 August, during a pre-season friendly against Burgos CF, he broke his fibula and also suffered an ankle injury after a tackle from José Joaquín Matos.[12]

International career

[edit]

In 2024, Simeone was selected to represent Argentina at the 2024 Summer Olympics, where he scored in the opening match, a 2–1 defeat against Morocco.

He made his debut for the senior national football team on November 19 the same year against the Peru national football team in a 2026 FIFA World cup qualifier. In doing so, he became the second son of Diego Simeone to play for Argentina after Giovanni Simeone.

Personal life

[edit]

Simeone is the son of football manager Diego Simeone.[2] His brothers Giovanni and Gianluca are also footballers.[5]
