The Griezmann soap opera is about to be over! Limited to only 30 minutes of play since the start of the La Liga season, apart from the match against Real Madrid where he played the entire match, the Frenchman should finally see his situation settled between Atlético and Barça . As a reminder, the 2018 world champion is on loan with the option to buy from the Colchoneros by the Blaugranas, until the end of the season. If he played more than 50% of the matches with the Madrid club, Atlético would have been forced to pay the mandatory purchase option in June 2023, set at 40 million euros. This will not ultimately be the case, since the two Spanish clubs have finally found common ground and a solution for the striker of the France team.
Griezmann should commit at the end of the season with Atlético against a check for 20 million!
According to the latest information from Spanish media Relevo, Barcelona and Atlético Madrid have recently agreed on a permanent transfer of Griezmann to the Colchoneros at the end of the season. An agreement should soon be signed between the two parties. Instead of the 40 million initially planned, Grizou should engage with the Madrid club against a check for 20 million euros (+ 2 million in bonus). The limitation to play 30 minutes per match will also no longer be on the agenda. Excellent news for the former Real Sociedad player, who will no longer be confined to a role of luxury joker. The Frenchman hopes to be aligned most often from the start by his coach Diego Simeone, in order to arrive in top form at the World Cup in Qatar on November 20.
Griezmann has cut his salary at Atletico again to stay. Close to an agreement at 20M€ + 2M€. @relevo

? End of the ‘caso Griezmann’.
Atlético y Barcelona firmarán en breve un acuerdo para traspasar al internacional inglés por 20 million (con +2 por bonus).
? Se olvidan de la cláusula de 40 millones y de la limitación de jugar 30 minutos por partidos.
