New cut for new life. Loaned by FC Barcelona to his former club Atlético de Madrid in the last moments of the summer transfer window, Antoine Griezmann started his second life at Colchoneros this Wednesday morning. The day after a successful match and a double with the Blues (2-0) against Finland in Lyon, the French striker was officially (re) presented by the formation of the capital, crowned in La Liga last season .
For the occasion, “Grizou” offered himself a short stint at the hairdresser between his reunion with his partners from Atlético at the club’s training center and the photo shoot organized at the stadium in front of the media with its president, Enrique Cerezo. Freshly cut hair, as in the past, the world champion took the pose with his new jersey, flocked with the number 8.
A return to hair roots staged by the club with which he reached the final of the Champions League in 2016. Atlético’s Twitter account shared a short video where the 30-year-old touches his hair in front of the camera.
Come to compensate for the departure of Saul Niguez at Chelsea, Antoine Griezmann will try to revive in Madrid within a team, led by coach – Diego Simeone – who appreciates his profile, after two delicate seasons at Barça, where he struggled to integrate. The coach of the Catalan club, Ronald Koeman, justified his departure by the possibility of saving a significant salary while FC Barcelona is encountering significant economic difficulties.
