Antoine Griezmann said his goal is to be a legend of the Spanish club, and one of the ways to achieve that is to continue playing for Atletico Madrid.

Griezmann said, “I’ve to earn myself to be a legend in this club. That’s my mission”.

“By 2024, I want to bring joy to the fans and some title for Atlético. It would be a dream…”.

The France international returned to Atletico Madrid permanently in 2023 after the club paid €20 million to Barca in addition to the €10 million the club paid to Barca for his loan move in 2021.
