Antoine Griezmann Signs Contract Extension With Atletico Madrid

‎On Monday, Atlético Madrid announced that France’s 2018 World Cup-winning forward Antoine Griezmann has signed an extension of his contract until 2027.

‎”Griezmann and Atletico have reached a deal to renew the French footballer’s contract until June 30, 2027,” said Atletico in a statement.

‎Griezmann is Atlético’s all-time top scorer, having scored 197 goals across two spells at the club, with his previous contract set to expire in 2026.

‎The experienced forward has faced a dip in form in 2025, with his last goal coming in February as the team finished third in La Liga and ended the season without a trophy.

‎Griezmann, who scored in France’s 2018 World Cup win over Croatia, signed for Atletico from Real Sociedad in 2014.

‎The striker, who retired from international football last year, won the Europa League with Atletico in 2018. He also finished as a Champions League runner-up twice during his time at the club.

‎In 2019, Griezmann transferred to Barcelona. He struggled there, winning only a Copa del Rey before returning to Atletico on loan in 2021 and making the move permanent.

‎Atletico Madrid and Griezmann will compete in the Club World Cup in the United States this summer. Their first match is against Champions League winners Paris Saint-Germain on June 15th.
