Antoine Griezmann is a French professional footballer who plays as a forward or attacking midfielder for La Liga club Atlético Madrid. Considered one of the greatest players of his generation, he is primarily known for his versatility, game intelligence, attacking output, and off-ball attributes.
Griezmann began his senior club career with Spanish side Real Sociedad in 2009, where he had previously been a youth graduate, and won the Segunda División in his first season. In 2014, he joined Atlético Madrid for a then-club record €30 million and won the UEFA Europa League, UEFA Super Cup, Supercopa de España, and La Liga Best Player. He was nominated for the Ballon d'Or and Best FIFA Men's Player in 2016 and 2018. In 2019, Griezmann was the subject of a record association football transfer when he signed for Barcelona in a transfer worth €120 million, becoming the fifth-most expensive player of all time. There, he won a Copa del Rey, before returning to Atlético Madrid in 2021, becoming the club's all-time top goalscorer.
Griezmann won the 2010 UEFA European Under-19 Championship with France and made his senior debut in 2014.
