Diego Simeone's men have already moved to the ultra-modern Wanda Metropolitano stadium.

And Atletico now wants to surround the 70,000 arena with a sprawling complex with a range of buildings.

The entire project is expected to cost a staggering £220 million.

And it will cover a whopping one MILLION square feet of space.

Atletico first wants to build a new training ground, including six football fields, a gym and a medical center.

It means they will finally be based in Madrid itself, while Atleti are currently based in Majadohonda – 20km from their stadium.

The complex will also feature a new 6,000-seat stadium for Atletico's women's and youth teams, as well as public pitches.

But the Spanish giants do not only want to invest in football-related matters.
