Antoine Griezmann is caught between two fires and this may affect his future career.
In the first two rounds, the Frenchman entered the game from the bench, and it is interesting that he spent less than half an hour on the field.
In the first match against Getafe (3:0), he entered in the 62nd minute and shook the opponent’s net, while at the same time he was on the field against Villarreal, but he was unable to prevent the defeat of Atlético (0:2).
It seems that Simeone wanted to bring in Griezmann before, but he was nailed to the bench due to a clause in his contract.
Griezmann is still a Barcelona player, on loan at Atlético, and there is a buyout clause in the contract according to which Madrid are obliged to bring the Frenchman to their club for 40 million euros at the end of the season. However, there is a “hole” in the system.
Atletico do not have to buy his contract if the Frenchman spends less than 30 minutes on the field in each match.
