Antoine Griezmann wants to continue to mark the history of Atlético de Madrid where he has returned since 2021, after a first stint between 2014 and 2019. Elected best player of the month for November in his club, the Blues striker, in very in great form, now hopes to become the top scorer in the history of the Colchoneros. With 173 goals, the record is held by Luis Aragonés, who died on February 1, 2014 and former coach of the Spain team.
Griezmann, who scored his 170th goal against Mallorca at the end of November, has overtaken Adrian Escudero and is therefore only three points away from the record. He could reach it before the end of this year 2023 where he still has five games to play with his team.
“I’m playing well and I’m full of confidence”
“I’m pretty confident,” he said in a club video. I started the first three matches normally, because I didn’t take much vacation. So I had a little trouble being mentally fresh. I’m very good at the moment, I’m playing well and I’m full of confidence. I feel like I’m important, whether defensively or scoring goals. To be honest, I’m very happy with my level.”
All the planets are therefore aligned to mark a little more the history of Atlético. “The goals record has been a challenge since I returned. Every time I score, I get closer. It’s a goal, extra motivation, and a dream come true. I keep a cool head. I’m not going to go crazy with every scoring opportunity. So I’m going to stay calm, as usual, because the goals will come. »
