This season, Antoine Griezmann has opted for a French club. Asked by ESPN, the Atlético de Madrid striker revealed that he had taken the destiny of the Girondins de Bordeaux into his own hands, with the aim of bringing the Aquitaine club back up.
Did he plan to recruit himself? “Not before 2030”, he joked. It is true that it seems difficult for a Ligue 2 club to consider offering a player of the caliber of Griezmann. “Imagine the salaries in the second division, it doesn’t pay much there”, amused the Mâconnais. If they find Ligue 1 in the near future, the leaders of the Girondins may think about making a quick phone call to “Grizi”, to find out if he is interested in the challenge…
