Griezmann staying at Atletico
Antoine Griezmann has ended another summer of speculation about his future by announcing he is staying with Atletico Madrid.
The France striker had been heavily linked with a €100 million (£88m) move to Barcelona in recent months, having last year been a reported target for Manchester United. However, the 27-year-old has now decided to extend his four-year stay with Atletico.
Griezmann revealed he would be staying put during a Spanish television documentary called ‘The Decision’ aired last night.
Meanwhile, Uefa has ordered the partial closure of Atletico’s stadium for their next home European match as punishment for a Nazi-style banner displayed in the Europa League final.
