Intense movements continue in the offices of the Metropolitan
The Athletic of Madrid continues to offer Griezmann right left and the Athletic It has been one of the last clubs to receive the proposal. The intention to sign Cristiano Ronaldo It is the great trigger in the will to get rid of a player who is no longer the same as he was.
jorge mendes keep pushing for Cristiano Ronaldo stop at the Metropolitan. A complicated operation, because of his high salary, because of what the figure of Cristiano Ronaldo and due to the overbooking of forwards that Cholo Simeone has. But far from it an impossible option.
Morata or Griezmann left over
Because let’s not forget that Álvaro Morata returns after his transfer to Juventus was cut short. And that Ángel Correa, Matheus Cunha and of course Joao Félix continue. They do not all fit and between returns and salaries the figure of Griezmann stands out above the rest.
Because Griezmann is not the same player who dazzled in 2018. His performance has been rather poor. But his salary is the highest in the squad after Cholo Simeone himself. A circumstance that invites you to think about an exit sooner rather than later.
Athletic does not rule out Griezmann
In this context, Jorge Mendes would have offered the possibility of Griezmann arriving at Manchester United in the same operation. Cristiano Ronaldo would stop at the Metropolitano and the Frenchman at Old Trafford. However, that destiny does not seduce the footballer at all.
Moreover, Manchester itself is not particularly interested either. Hence, Atlético, desperately, has offered it to Athletic. But at Athletic they are very clear about their opinion on Griezmann. His last words on his behalf to the Royal Society were enough. That they sell it to the txuri urdin team and not alter Athletic’s order.
