“At the end of this season I will begin my steps as head coachGermán Burgos himself publicly confirmed that he is leaving Atleti and what his next challenge is, although in reality it won't be his first solo “steps”. Monkey he was already head coach before allying with Simeone on this successful tandem. The former goalkeeper started his career as a coach 10 years ago, at the Carabanchel.

As on this occasion, that Burgos had also been preparing at Atlético to make the leap. So, Germán landed at Carabanchel after leaving Atlético C, where he was Alejandro Sánchez's assistant. Before, he had been in Garro's coaching staff in Alcorcón and had coincided at the Coaching School with Pochettino, Hierro, Pellegrino … In March 2010 he received this call from the Carabanchel.
The team was then in First of Amateurs, two categories below Third. “Look, I started playing on dirt fields and, by chance, that's how I'm going to start as a coach”, recognized AS on his first day as a coach, with the stopwatch in hand, one of his hallmarks during these years at Atleti. His debut was at the home of Europa Park: 0-4. The Expensive was third and got promoted to Preferred. The coach started the following year in the new category, but resigned before Christmas.

Burgos already aspired then to get to First and he defined himself this way: “I am an obsessive man, who does not like to be late, and very serious in what I do. You don't joke about work, you have to be professional. “ The following year, the Argentine linked his career to Simeone's to occupy the bench of Racing de Avellaneda. Then they arrived at Atleti together and the rest is already a story told … until the next chapter begins, again with Burgos flying solo.
