DIEGO SIMEONE is not letting a knee operation get in the way of his summer plans.
The Atletico Madrid boss went under the knife at the end of the season.
And he has been snapped enjoying a dip while wearing a knee brace in Ibiza.
Simeone, 54, looked in decent shape despite his injury as he was helped into the water.
He was alongside wife Carla Pereyra, 36, who donned a tiny brown bikini.

Simeone has two children – daughters Francesca and Valentina with model Carla.
While he has three sons – including Argentine international Giovanni – with first wife Carolina Baldini.
Last year, Simeone joked that players only having sex four times a month could not play for him.
He was told about a study that claims the average Spaniard has sex 56 times a year.

An incredulous Simeone said: “How many? 56? 56 a year!
“How many are a month? Four a month? Four a month no.
“With four times a month you can’t play in my team.”
Atleti finished fourth in LaLiga last season as surprise package Girona took third behind Real Madrid and Barcelona.
So Simeone will have plenty of work to do when he returns to pre-season.
He is expected to be walking without help by then but might have to take it easy – not something he is known for.
