Simeone talks about Griezmann’s role in the team!

Will Antoine Griezmann start on Saturday for the reception of Girona? If the conflict between Barça and Atlético seems to be settled soon, nothing official has yet been announced by the two clubs. The French could therefore again be content to return on time tomorrow, in a role of luxury joker to which he has been accustomed since the start of the season. Indeed, the Colchoneros striker has started only once this season in La Liga, it was against Real Madrid on September 18. Asked this Friday at a press conference, Atlético coach Diego Simeone returned to the role of Griezmann and his importance within the team. Words conveyed by the team.

“I have always behaved as I understood I had to and, I refer to the facts. From there, we know the importance of Griezmann within the team and we hope that he can continue to improve and grow, because he is on this path. I believe that we are in a club and in a team where the requirement is maximum and obviously this requirement means that we absolutely have to win. We all have to win the matches. I see a team that is growing, that had a good game in Sevilla. For me, the first half the other day was very good, with a lot of positive things, which are the consequence of who we are went for and what we wanted to do. I have great faith in my players and the team, because I obviously see them growing and fighting for our goals.”
