Fernando Torres refuses to rule out Atletico return

Chelsea striker Fernando Torres has insisted that is open to a return to former club Atletico Madrid during the summer transfer window.

The 30-year-old Spain international who joined the Blues from Liverpool in 2011, made his name as one of the World's best during his excellent career with the La Liga giants.

 

Following his inconsistency in recent seasons with the West London outfit, Torres has claimed that he could be tempted to move to his home country to play for his former club and  also revealed his admiration for manager Diego Simeone.

 

"In football you never know," He said. "You can't be sure where you're going to be tomorrow or in a week or in 10 years.

 

"I have a lot of admiration for Cholo [Atletico head coach Diego Simeone] from when we were teammates. He helped me a lot and taught me to be captain. I always want to work alongside people I admire."

 

Torres has notched up 43 goals in 161 appearances for the Blues so far
