"It is difficult, in a short time, to express all the feelings I have for him, first as a person and then as a footballer," Atletico manager Diego Simeone said about Koke after their win over Sevilla. 
 
"He is a guy who gave himself, who never hesitated to commit first to Atletico, with his team-mates, with the coaching staff, and that is very difficult to see. 
 
"He has been an exemplary captain for many years. It is not easy to maintain that place in a team like Atletico, with so much responsibility."
