ATLETICO MADRID manager Diego Simeone’s son Giovanni nailed the perfect impression of his father.
Giovanni was recorded by friends imitating the Atletico boss’ intense reactions when his players don’t carry out his orders and left onlookers in stitches.
The Cagliari ace, who has been linked with a move to Arsenal, also dressed the part as he wore a black suit, just like his father when he’s in action, during a short clip shared on Instagram.
The Argentine tactician is notorious for throwing a fit on the touchline and has been sent off by the referee on numerous occasions because of it.

Simeone celebrated one of the goals by turning to the stands and grabbing his crotch.
He said after the match: “I did it as a player in Lazio-Bologna and I did it again to show our fans that we have cojones.
“It wasn’t aimed at the other team, I was turning towards our own supporters.
“It’s not a nice gesture, I admit, but I felt the need to do it.

“I can only apologise if anyone was offended, but I did it from the heart.”
But that came back to haunt him in the second leg as Manchester United legend Cristiano Ronaldo led Juve to the quarter-finals with a stunning hat-trick.
Ronaldo rubbed some salt into the Argentine’s wounds by imitating his own ‘cojones’ celebration.
