Atletico Madrid midfielder Saul Niguez has insisted that he will not leave the Vicente Calderon while Diego Simeone remains in charge of the Spanish giants.

Saul, 21, has developed into a key player at Atletico over the last couple of seasons and it is understood that Manchester United and Arsenal both tried to sign him in the summer transfer window.

The Spaniard, however, has committed his future to Atletico for as long as Simeone remains at the helm.

"As long as Simeone is here, no, I won't leave," Saul told Club del Deportista. "When a coach has faith in you as much as he has and gives you that confidence, it's vital."

Saul, who just missed out on the Spain squad for Euro 2016, has scored once in nine Atletico appearances this season.
