Griezmann says no!

Antoine Griezmann celebrated his 34th birthday on March 21 and has obviously decided nothing about his future. While Marca And

Readertwo Madrid media, said in recent months that the top scorer in Atlético had decided to leave the Colchoneros to live his American dream, preferably in Los Angeles FC with his friends Hugo Lloris and Olivier Giroud, the 2018 world champion met his leaders 10 days ago to give them his position: he does not move the idea of ​​honoring his contract going up to 2026. Could thus try to win the Liga one last time, a title that escapes him when he has made his whole career in Spain.

The team Give details on the “Grizi” meeting with its management and the situation could give rise to a real soap opera in the coming weeks. However, it will not be as distressing as in 2018, when he decided to stay in the capital and not go to Barça. The winner of the 2018 Europa League had decided to stage in a documentary named The decisionfor which he had shot two final versions! This had been broadcast at the start of the 2018 World Cup. Atlético supporters wanted him a lot after his departure the year after Catalonia…

Griezmann has his destiny again in hand, he is allowed to go this summer if he wishes. We learn above all, in

The teamthat the leaders of Atlético proposed to their number 7 star to reduce his salary through a new contract of several years. There is a real negotiation between the two parties about the emoluments of the one who retired international last September. By returning to Atlético in 2021, the native of Mâcon had made a cross on an incredible jackpot, since his salary had to increase to 19 million euros, then 20 million in 2022 and 21 million in 2023!

Antoine Griezmann, is a trend confirmed?

As precise The teamGriezmann has agreed to reduce his salary twice already at Atlético. The 3rd of the Ballon d'Or 2016 and 2018 would now culminate at 12 million euros gross per year. It is much less than Kylian Mbappé and Vinicius, who would pocket more than € 30 million in Real. At Atlético, it is Jan Oblak who is by far the best paid player of the workforce, at more than 20 M € annually. Griezmann is the only player to exceed 10 million, while Conor Gallagher, Marcos Llorente and Axel Witsel get closer.

Thus, Griezmann, who asked for an increase last year (still according to The team), refused the idea of ​​extending at Atlético to win less every month. The outcome is uncertain, but the father (three children) could simply decide to honor his last year, even if it means playing a little less under the orders of Diego Simeone. He has very often picked it physically for long months. His wife, from the Basque Country (he met her during his beginnings at Real Sociedad), may not immediately settle in the United States.
