Griezmann: An April 8th Full of Red and White Magic
Atlético de Madrid celebrates a very special date for Antoine Griezmann, a red and white idol. The French striker has a peculiar record: all three of his children were born on the same day! Mia, Amaro, and Alba arrived into the world on April 8th, in 2016, 2019, and 2021 respectively.
This incredible coincidence, the result of his relationship with Erika Choperena, whom he married in 2017 and who has accompanied him since his beginnings at Real Sociedad, has generated admiration and surprise in the world of football.
The most curious thing is that, for Alba’s birth, Griezmann had already returned to Atlético de Madrid, adding an even more special touch to this story. Without a doubt, this unique ‘hat-trick’ of births makes April 8th a date marked in red and white for the player and all the Colchoneros fans. A heartwarming anecdote that shows that, sometimes, the magic of football extends beyond the pitch.
