"Jose Resurreccion 'Koke' and Atletico Madrid have completed an agreement for the player to sign a contract extension until June 30, 2024," read a club statement.

The midfielder told the club’s official website, "Atletico is the club of my life and it's an honor to be a part of its future.”

Meanwhile, Los Rojiblancos sporting director Jose Luis Perez Caminero added: "This is great news for all Atletico fan.

"He is one of the leaders of the team and has grown up with the values of this club.

"Despite his youth, he has vast experience and he is an example to all the children from our Academy. He is loved, respected and will make history in this club."
