Antoine Griezmann re-joins Atlético Madrid from Barcelona in shock move
The Guardian says Antoine Griezmann has re-joined Atlético Madrid in a shock move from Barcelona on a season’s loan with an obligation for the transfer to become permanent for €40m (£34.4m).
The France international left Atlético for Barcelona in a €120m deal in 2019 but has failed to live up to expectations. He has scored 22 goals in 74 La Liga games for the Catalan club.
A swap involving JoĂŁo Felix had been mooted but Barcelona instead signed Luuk de Jong from Sevilla. Griezmann spent five successful seasons at AtlĂ©tico after joining from Real Sociedad, his goals return markedly better than at the Camp Nou, scoring 94 times in 180 league games. AtlĂ©tico were on Tuesday night close to loaning the midfielder SaĂşl Ă‘Ăguez to Chelsea.
