Antoine Griezmann has reaffirmed his long-term commitment to Atletico Madrid after revealing that his 2027 contract renewal came from a deep desire to “achieve more” with the club. Speaking to Diario AS, the French forward offered an honest and emotional reflection on his ambitions, his future, and the painful memories that continue to fuel his motivation.
Griezmann, who has enjoyed a resurgence under Diego Simeone, made it clear that his hunger for trophies at Atleti remains stronger than ever. “I renewed my contract here until 2027 because I want more… and there’s still so much more to do,” he said. The 33-year-old emphasised that his next big targets include lifting La Liga, the Copa del Rey, and the UEFA Champions League with Los Rojiblancos, three titles that have eluded him in his otherwise glittering career.
Despite repeatedly expressing admiration for Major League Soccer, a league he has openly described as his “dream,” Griezmann reassured Atletico fans that he doesn’t see himself leaving anytime soon. “Everyone knows the MLS is my dream… but I want to keep renewing here, and keep being important,” he added, signalling his desire to continue playing a central role in Simeone’s long-term project.
