Antoine Griezmann has continued to repeat it since announcing his international retirement at the beginning of the fall. Despite the form displayed with Atletico Madrid during the first half of the season, the Mâconnais has no intention of reversing his decision and will not return to the French team in the run-up to the 2026 World Cup in America from the North. Blues supporters must make up their minds.
However, Antoine Griezmann is preparing to fly to the United States and meet up with some of his old friends in the France team. According to Marca, the decision of the Madrid number 7 has been made. Despite a contract that runs with the Colchoneros until June 2026, with a salary of some 12 million euros per season, the French world champion has in fact announced his departure from Atletico Madrid at the end of the season.
Antoine Griezmann released by Atletico Madrid?
And if some dream of seeing him land at Olympique de Marseille, Antoine Griezmann has also decided to join MLS and more precisely Los Angeles FC where two of his former partners with the Blues already play: Olivier Giroud and Hugo Lloris. The former Barcelona player has already agreed with the Californian leaders on the terms of his contract.
Furthermore, Atletico Madrid would be ready to release their star player from the last year of his contract for services rendered. Asked about his attacker, Diego Simeone had indicated that Antoine Griezmann’s decision should be respected whatever it may be. The Colchoneros seem to have made up their minds and are now hoping for a grand exit, with Atletico Madrid in second place in the La Liga standings with two points behind Real and a game in hand.
