Griezmann delighted with Atleti deal

Antoine Griezmann has admitted he is delighted to have signed a six-year deal with Atletico Madrid.

The champions completed a €30m move for the Real Sociedad winger on Monday, but the France international was in the capital today to put pen-to-paper.

But the 23-year-old made sure to thank his former club in a brief statement before officially joining Diego Simeone’s men.

“I arrived at the age of 13 and they were the only ones that gave me confidence and believed in me,” he told reporters.

“But I’m delighted [to be at Atleti].”
