Barcelona forward Antoine Griezmann have re-joined Atletico Madrid

Atletico Madrid have re-signed Barcelona forward Antoine Griezmann on a one-year loan contract.


Atletico will pay the player's salaries, and there is a mandatory clause to make the transfer permanent.

The France international scored 133 goals in 257 appearances for Atletico before being released in 2019 after Barcelona met his £107 million buyout clause.

However, the 30-year-old scored just 35 goals in 102 appearances and won the Copa del Rey with Barcelona.

He is the 11th player, including Lionel Messi, to leave financially troubled Barcelona this summer.

Barcelona were forced to let go of their all-time leading scorer in order to comply with La Liga's wage structure, and Messi joined Paris St-Germain.

Griezmann is Barcelona's third transfer deadline day sell. Emerson Royal, a right-back, joined Tottenham for £25.8 million, while Ilaix Moriba, a teenage midfielder, joined RB Leipzig for £13.7 million.

Atletico Madrid recruited Barcelona striker Luis Suarez last summer, and he helped Diego Simeone's team win La Liga.
