Last winter, Antoine Griezmann’s move from Atletico to the United States fell through at the very last moment. Now, the Frenchman has used the international break to make a decision about his future.
And that future now officially lies with MLS club Orlando City. Both clubs confirmed the news on Tuesday afternoon. Griezmann will finish the season with the Rojiblancos before making the move across the pond in the summer.
For more than a decade, the Frenchman was among the best attacking players in Europe. His career began at Mâconnais, from where he moved to Real Sociedad. In 2014, he joined Atlético Madrid for what was then a high transfer fee of 54 million euros.

In 2019, he set a new personal transfer record with a move worth a full 120 million euros to FC Barcelona. However, he was unable to fully establish himself at Camp Nou. After two seasons, he returned to Madrid, first on loan and later permanently for 22 million euros.
For many years, Griezmann was also a driving force in the French national team, with whom he won, among other things, the 2018 World Cup.
