With an unexpected twist nobody was expecting, Atletico Madrid just presented their most recent transfer to the entire world.
Even though he is a familiar face, Antoine Griezmann was just presented as an Atletico Madrid player earlier today with a twist. The French forward is fresh out of an amazing time with his national team, where he became the third joint all-time top scorer in the country. He arrived on the last minutes of the recent transfer window that ended a few days back. FC Barcelona needed to get rid of a player’s elevated wages who also wasn’t delivering great results for the money he was making.
It was a win-win situation for all sides that Griezmann absolutely loved because he left a lot of good friends as an Atletico Madrid player. Upon arrival, it was almost as if he never left the club in the first place. He immediately greeted all his former teammates and made some publicity work ahead of his presentation. But right before all the photos and official videos were taken, there was a twist nobody was expecting from Griezmann.
Antoine Griezmann’s twist during his presentation.
When he first arrived, there was a video of Antoine Griezmann greeting all his teammates that showed him with the usual long hair. But after a few minutes, there was another video and the official photos with a clean-cut Antoine. It’s a new chapter in his career that he obviously wants to face with a different look. Atletico Madrid presented their player who returns to continue his already great legend as a Colchonero. With this latest transfer, Diego Simeone’s squad easily becomes the top title contender in La Liga.
However, the Champions League is definitely another tournament where Antoine can help them compete. Having other great offensive players like Luis Suarez, Angel Correa, or Joao Felix can certainly help Griezmann get adapted faster than ever before. He will wear the club’s number ‘8’ jersey that Saul Ñiguez left after he signed a new deal with Chelsea. How will Griezmann do on his second spell at Atletico Madrid?
