Simeone has four forwards in a squad that is five games away from closing the season. Four points on which the offensive capacity of the team has been sustained Atlético 23-24. Four scorers who add up 61 targets in the absence of achieving the minimum objective of finishing in the top four and participating in the Champions for the twelfth consecutive season.

Of the four, yes, barely Antoine Griezmann continuity is guaranteed for next season. The French, with contract until 2026does not contemplate any other scenario than to continue making history with Atlético, a club in which he is already the all-time top scorer and in which he only needs to crown his great individual performance with collective achievements, his only mark as a red and white player (we must remember that in The last League won the Frenchman played for Barça).

Joao, without options to return

Although this season he is on loan at Barcelona, ​​the other forward with a current contract is Joao Felix. The Portuguese, with a contract until 2029, does not want to return to Atlético or Atlético to return, so we will have to find a way out.

Hence, the only forward with guaranteed continuity at Atlético is Griezmann.
