Zapping World Eleven EXCLUDED: Arkadiusz Milik’s “Little Brother” interview!
What’s going on with Antoine Griezmann? Returning to Atlético Madrid this summer in the form of a loan with an option to buy from Barça, the French international thought he could find serenity in the Spanish capital. But two days from the end, the left-hander finds himself in a more than delicate situation. Sportingly first, he is going through a real patch of air, his last goal with the Colchoneros in the league dating back to the end of November, but also in terms of his future. Indeed, while the purchase option was to be exercised, the Padlock Cope indicates that nothing is done yet.
A problematic salary
Indeed, the player’s performance, as well as his capital salary (18 million euros per year) pose a problem for Madrid leaders. With a view to finding a positive outcome to this file, Miguel Ángel Gil Marín, the boss of Atlético, and Mateu Alemany, the general manager of Barça, met to try to find a positive outcome to this. The player is still under contract until 2024 with the Blaugrana, but the Catalans do not intend to recover him this summer. As for the mattress makers, his salary is too high to keep him, and unless the latter is reduced, the club will not exercise the purchase option estimated at 40 million euros. At 31, the future of the 2018 world champion’s career is blurrier than ever.

to summarize
Antoine Griezmann, the French striker from Barça on loan to Atlético Madrid, does not know if he will be retained by the Colchoneros next season. His salary estimated at 18 million euros is a problem in the capital.
