Atlético de Madrid has a team full of recognizable names and great players, some of them have achieved legendary status over the years. The colchoneros have seen glorious generations full of joy and important triumphs with footballers who have marked a before and after for the club. With some of these red-and-white legends currently in the first team, it is commendable to maintain this level after so many years in the elite of football.
One of those players who is already a legend at Atlético de Madrid is none other than its all-time top scorer, Antoine Griezmann . The Frenchman arrived at Atlético a decade ago, and has since been crucial in the club's achievement of important titles and has left moments and goals for the annals of its history. Being ' The Little Prince' admired by many experts and by legends of French and world football, Thierry Henry has surrendered to the Frenchman in an interview.
Thierry Henry in love with Antoine Griezmann
The former player for Monaco, Arsenal and FC Barcelona , among others, does not hide his admiration for another legend of French football, Griezmann , and regularly praises him. Henry affirms how impressive "his ability to still be there at 33 years old " is and highlights his role with Atlético and the national team . In addition, Henry highlights his versatility, stating that Griezmann "has played on the right, left, up front or behind a striker and has always adapted to what was asked of him."
Griezmann , for his part, continues to perform at an incredibly high level for his age and continues, as Henry said, to adapt well to what is asked of him at all times. The Frenchman is fundamental for both Didier Deschamps and Diego Pablo Simeone , who has always had an affair with his French star. Pending the possibility of continuing this fruitful relationship for many more years, his imminent renewal with Atlético is one of the pending issues within the club.
MLS Idyll
Griezmann has always been a fan of American culture, and his own dream is to one day play in the American league and live in the country. If Major League Soccer were to knock on their door, Atlético de Madrid would not stand in the way of the player's departure, understanding that he is already getting older. Hoping to keep their emblem for a few more years, the Colchoneros hope to be able to certify a renewal of the Frenchman so as not to part ways next year.
There are still many dances left
If he maintains the level he showed during much of last season, Griezmann could be a difference-maker for Atlético de Madrid until his body gives out. 'El Principito' knows that the Colchoneros will be his last club in Europe and he wants to leave everything on the field until he has to say goodbye to his home. In the meantime, Griezmann will continue to be as decisive as ever and will work hard to bring much joy to the team and the fans.
