Atletico Madrid legend Filipe Luis says he'll soon be entering coaching.

Luis retired last week with Flamengo and admits he'll take inspiration from Atletico coach Diego Simeone.

He told AS: “Simeone was, and this is great, the main person who made me want to be a coach.

“I want to start writing a new story in football. I will never abandon you. He transformed my life, he changed my thinking, he changed my mentality. He transformed me into a champion. If he was able to do that with me, I need to pass that on, I need to do that with someone too.

"I have had many coaches who also helped me, but he is the main one."
