Atletico Madrid striker Antoine Griezmann, who played more than 500 matches and scored over 200 goals in two spells in Madrid, will empty the warehouse of “mattresses” after the end of the season.

Ahead of the Champions League final against Arsenal, the French forward shared his feelings about Atletico, as well as his thoughts on the Champions League and assessing the work of Diego Simeone.

" Having left Sociedad, I said that I would not be able to survive such feelings until I wanted another club, but if I arrived at Atletico, I would feel the same. I would call this a little more than just a bastard.

Love the colors of the club, emblems and football. Atletico fans love football and value easy work. I think that’s why I got very close to the club and the sick people.

I don’t think about the lost penalty series against Real Madrid in the Champions League final, but right now, if we’re talking about this tournament with friends and teammates, this moment is bound to merge – 2016, my penalty.

Coming out of the final of this season, having healed a very deep wound, the only way to come back from the past is to win the bitter tournament.

Simeone gave me everything, and I gave you everything. It is my duty and my duty to work with him from now on.

I know that after my career I will lose a great friend, a great coach, and we will be even closer from now on.

The garniy assistist is more suitable for me, the lower exit from the gate every day. I am a Swedish citizen of one or two dotiks. I’m not that effective, but I try to create chances for my partners and give surprises to my opponent, as happened in the match with Tottenham,” the UEFA press service suggested to Griezmann..

Guess what, the first match between Atletico Madrid and Arsenal will take place tomorrow, April 29th, at 10:00 p.m..
