Griezmann should stay in Madrid this summer, despite speculation about his future in the Spanish capital, the two parties constantly expressing their wish to extend this collaboration.
The former French international arrived at the end of the contract at the end of 2025/26 and is not yet decided as to an extension. However, its current form being at half mast, rumors multiply as to its departure for the MLS. Griezmann expressed his wish to play in the United States before his retirement, but this project could be highlighted, the club being still open to an extension until 2027 if he finds his best level.
This scenario would imply a drop in salary for the 34 -year -old player, but Diego Simeone would have contacted club management to request that efforts be made to keep Griezmann. Simeone is confident about Griezmann's ability to continue to influence matches at the end of the season, but he admits that things will have to change for the veteran attacker, just like other players over 30, including Captain Koke.
“” It is normal (to play less) with age and to lose the rhythm, speed, quality or weight that we usually had in the team ”, According to Relo.

“As trainers, we have to live in the present, and the teams too. These players remain in the hierarchy and their qualities are not lost. There are ways to continue to help the team, whatever their position. ”
“I had to live this as a player. We almost never want to understand it at the time: a player wants to play, whether he has 36, 35, 28 or 16 years old! »»
