Antoine Griezmann is undoubtedly a legend of Atletico Madrid, but his time at the club could end in the coming months. Despite the fact that he was contracted until the summer of 2026, he could leave early for 12 months to start a new chapter in his career.
It is no secret that Griezmann houses a desire to play in the MLS before hanging his boots, and that dream will almost certainly become a reality – with the only question when it happens. Los Angeles FC is desperate to sign him in 2025 and movements are made in that area.
According to Relo, it is said that Griezmann is in advanced conversations with Lafc, although a deal will not be closed unless Athleti will give their permission – what they will do if the French attacker makes clear that he wants to leave at the end of the season.
Atleti has already told Griezmann that she will not interfere in his future, so he can leave if that is what he wants. However, it is clear that club officers would keep their talisman very much to stay in the Metropolitano for at least one season.
Atleti will be informed in advance of Griezmann's decision, whereby the report states that “90%” of the process will be completed at the end of March. As a result, the sports department of the club could be enough time to sort a replacement, which player it is linked as Jean-Philippe Mateta from Crystal Palace.
It will be a very sad day in Atletico Madrid when Griezmann leaves, and they will hope he decides to stay around for a last hurray in the 2025-26 campaign. For the time being, behind the scenes are still being done, while Lafc continues their planning to sign their most important transfer target.
