Griezmann: The Present and Future of Atlético
March is shaping up to be a crucial month for both Atlético de Madrid and Antoine Griezmann, a player who has earned the affection of the Rojiblancos fans.
The club has given him the freedom to decide his future, and Griezmann, Atlético’s all-time leading scorer (197 goals), must decide whether to head to the United States when his contract expires in 2026 or whether to use the year and a half he has left.
This decision will influence the club’s planning for next season. However, the Frenchman is fully focused on the present and on the quest for titles. Atlético is still alive in La Liga, Champions League and Copa del Rey, and Griezmann’s performance will be key to the team’s success in these competitions.
In the immediate match, Atlético face Athletic, an opponent that Griezmann is particularly good at playing against, having scored 14 goals against them, the team he has celebrated the most against. Simeone highlights Griezmann’s importance to the team, highlighting his ability to make a difference.
In addition, Griezmann is the outfield player who has played the most minutes, the team’s second top scorer and the top assist provider. Rivals such as Real Madrid and Getafe are also on his target list. Griezmann’s month, both in the present and in the future, promises to be exciting for Atlético fans.
