Atletico warn Barcelona and Man Utd over Griezmann’s potential move

Atletico Madrid president Enrique Cerezo could not hide his happiness for the Colchoneros’ qualification for the Europa League final yesterday night.

The La Liga giants beat Arsenal 1-0 to reach their fifth European final in the last nine campaigns and after the final whistle Cerezo talked to Spanish media.

“We’ve already won something because reaching an European final is a big achievement. It’s not easy to qualify for a final and it doesn’t happen to everybody.

“The lad played a perfect game. We won and we played very well in front of a sold-out stadium. Everything was running smooth, now we are in the final, which is exactly what we wanted.”

Talking about the future of Antoine Griezmann, a Barcelona and Manchester United target, Cerezo said: “I think he will remain with us next season, he is a player of Atletico Madrid.”

​Griezmann refused to leave Atletico last summer and has a € 100 million release clause included in his contract.
