Griezmann in the legend
Indeed, positioned within the midfield of Colchoneros, the 2018 world champion made almost every good move. Enough to greatly satisfy his trainer Diego Simeone, very complimentary of the Frenchman. “I had no doubt, when some did not want him to return, that he was born to play for Atlético,” said El Cholo. (…) He left, followed his path and managed to turn the situation around,” he continued.
For the Spanish technician, there is no doubt that the former member of Real Sociedad will leave his mark on the history of the Madrid club. “He is hungry, he projects towards goal, he understands what is expected of him when he plays in midfield, he gives assists… I am lucky to have a player like Griezmann. There is no doubt that he will be one of the best players in the club’s history. He reads the game to bring balance and compensation for the whole team. »
