The Atlético de Madrid season is practically finished. If the Colchoneros will play the club World Cup this summer, they took the door in the Champions League, in Copa Del Rey and point seven points from Barça in the Liga ranking to the end of the end, which makes an almost impossible title. Suffice to say that in the offices of Metropolitano, we are already turning to next season. For this summer transfer window, Rojiblancos leaders also have big ambitions and wish to bring 6 or 7 new heads, with Viktor Gyökeres as possible gondola head of this summer market.

Everything will also depend on the future of certain players, starting with that of Antoine Griezmann (34), whose salary is substantial. In recent months, the Spanish media has been convinced that he was going to end his Colchonera adventure this summer to join Major League Soccer. Then, in recent weeks, the trend has changed a little, and certain Iberian publications indicated that he was still going to go to the end of his contract to leave Madrid in the summer of 2026.

Griezmann will make sacrifices

And now Reader reveals a small bomb. Not only should he not leave this summer, but on top of that, he should … extend his contract. The media explains that it should thus re -fill and link its future to the club until 2027. All, with a fairly large drop in salary, which will allow Colchoneros to save some savings and which will be more in line with its status which will not be, a priori, that of absolute star of the team.

Even if his performances are a little below lately and he has suffered criticism, Diego Simeone wants him to remain absolutely and he asked the management to ensure that he remains. Despite interesting proposals from the North American championship, Grizi is also ready to continue the adventure, being very comfortable in Madrid and within the club. The love story between Atlético and Griezmann is far from over!
