Antoine Griezmann's future will be one of the soap operas of the summer. Until July 1, when his release clause drops to 120 million euros, the French forward will not reveal his next team. Despite that, there are many that place him at FC Barcelona
Griezmann insinuated to the Atletico Madrid directors that he has everything sorted with a team, and it's going to be Barça. They won'tt reveal it now because they would have to pay 200 million euros, so it's going to be a long month and a half for the azulgrana," declared tthe journalist Roberto Gomez on Radio Marca.
And he added: "The only thin that has come out from the meeting between Griezmann, Gil Marín, Cholo Simeone and Andrea Berta is that Griezmannn literally said 'I cannot say no to Leo.' So there was contact between Messi and the Frenchman."
Therefore, Leo Messi could have acted as an intermediary to push through Griezmann's move to Camp Nou this summer.
In addition, according to OKDiario, a third person, linked to Gerard Pique, helped Messi's message get through to Griezmann, who could partner him in attack next season. For now, nothing is clear, and we will have to wait until July for the France star's destination.
