Atlético Madrid is moving closer to a move for Antoine Griezmann.

Griezmann and Atleti are discussing contract terms after the club has agreed to a $40 million deal with Real Sociedad.

Diego Simeone would be able to use Griezmann out wide, as well as a more central role.

“He’s a very good player. He is very quick and can give us a lot of options in attack,” said Diego Simeone. 

“It’s also true that a lot of other players have been talked about as possibly coming [to Atlético], and we could make two teams out of all of them.”
