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