Official: Griezmann Leaves Barcelona
01 September, 2021
In what was the most shocking deadline day transfer, Antoine Griezmann has officially left Barcelona.
After reports had suggested that the 30-year-old's return to Atletico Madrid had fallen through, it was confirmed after midnight that the Frenchman is, in fact, a Los Rojiblancos player once again.
Griezmann joined the Catalan giants from Atleti in 2019 following a controversial transfer saga, one that saw his relationship with fans of the Madrid-based side take strain.
The forward spent five years on Atletico's books between 2014 and 2019, making 257 appearances for the club in his first spell and contributing to 183 goals.
At Barca, Griezmann was unable to replicate that form but does depart with a healthy 52 goal contributions in 102 matches across all competitions
