The World Cup winner has made no secret of his desire to potentially follow in the footsteps of his former Barcelona teammates in eventually finishing his career stateside
Antoine Griezmann could follow in Lionel Messi’s footsteps and become the next superstar to head to MLS after previously expressing interest in a move to America.
The Frenchman has made no secret of his love for the country in the past and has even teased that he would like to finish his career in MLS. The 32-year-old completed his return to Atletico Madrid last summer but there is now interest in his services from MLS clubs.
According to Sport, the former Barcelona attacker has admirers at three clubs in MLS. And the one-time World Cup winner’s current employers believe the player would favour a move at the end of this current campaign.
It’s claimed that Griezmann desires a less pressurised environment to continue his career and Diego Simeone’s outfit may be willing to grant him his wish. Despite the former Real Sociedad forward being under contract until 2026 in the Spanish capital, they may let him move to America if they receive a satisfactory offer.
