Enrique Cerezo, the boss of Atlético Madrid, has commented on the rumor of a possible upcoming departure of Antoine Griezmann.

Antoine Griezmann is currently the subject of transfer rumors. While he shines brightly with the Matelassiers, he is notably announced by Manchester United, his long-time suitor.

For Griezmann, there is no hurry

On the Madrid side, these behind-the-scenes noises do not worry management. And they are not inviting management to rush to sign a new contract for the Mâconnais either. “(Antoine) Griezmann? I don’t think we’re in talks with him right now, but if he has to renew, he will.”confided Enrique Cerezo.

While ensuring that there is no urgency for a new lease, the boss of the Rojiblancos assures that he holds his French international in very high esteem. “We can compare him with the best of the moment and the best in the history of Atlético, Luis Aragonés, Gárate…”.

It’s not just Griezmann who could return to Metropolitano. Other players are also likely to re-engage after the good start to the season. Cerezo reveals on this subject: “There is still a lot to do with the contracts, all the renewals are in progress and when they come to fruition, we will say.”
