On the pitch of Feyenoord Rotterdam (this Tuesday at 9 p.m.), in the Champions League, Antoine Griezmann can get closer to the goals record in the history of his club, still held by Luis Aragonés (173).
Antoine Griezmann has started the countdown, and started the countdown of the short time that undoubtedly now separates him from the moment when he will break a historic record, that of top scorer in the history of Atlético.
Because by once once more donning the costume of providential scorer this weekend, once morest Mallorca (1-0), the French international (9 goals in La Liga, 13 in all competitions) scored his 170th goal for Atlético.
Second top scorer in the history of the Rojiblancos with 170 goals, Antoine Griezmann might get a little closer to the record held by Luis Aragonés (173) this Tuesday evening in the Champions League, or even equal it if he scores a hat-trick once morest Feyenoord Rotterdam (9 p.m.).
“The best player in the world”
It took eight seasons for Griezmann, as valuable with the Blues as he is essential at Atlético, to achieve this record which should not escape him, the season still being very long, unless he gets injured .
Griezmann celebrated his 358th appearance for the Rojiblancos last weekend. If he were to break this record, the Frenchman would open the debate on whether he is the best player to have worn this Atlético jersey.
“Antoine Griezmann is a living legend of Atlético de Madrid and he will overtake Luis Aragonés, anticipated his teammate Koke this weekend. We are happy to have him on the pitch and we hope that he remains the freshest possible, but he continues to score, and that’s important.”
Arriving in 2014 from Real Sociedad, playing master Antoine Griezmann, a brilliant individual at the service of the collective, has constantly reinvented himself under the rule of the intransigent Diego Simeone and his French team coach, Didier Deschamps, especially following two years of languishing at Barça (2019-2021).
“He is hungry, he projects towards goal, he understands what is expected of him when he plays in midfield, he gives assists… I am lucky to have a player like Griezmann, welcomed Diego Simeone at the beginning of the month. There is no doubt that he will be one of the best players in the history of the club. He reads the game to bring balance and compensation for the whole team. “
Will Diego Simeone keep him going this evening, when the Frenchman has started all of his team’s matches this season? Traveling to Feyenoord Rotterdam, Atlético can qualify for the round of 16 of the competition on an evening when their coach will celebrate his 100th Champions League match at the helm of the Rojiblancos.
There might be so much to celebrate tonight for Atlético that it would be a shame to miss out on Antoine Griezmann. Asked regarding his intentions regarding the Frenchman, Diego Simeone did not wish to comment, preferring to kick into touch. This Tuesday morning, Marca did not wait for the answer to this quite anecdotal question to celebrate “the best player in the world” on the front page of its site.
