Thunderbolt in Madrid! Antoine Griezmann is reportedly on the verge of leaving Atlético de Madrid to fulfill his American dream. The destination is Major League Soccer, and more specifically Orlando City SC.
Griezmann to MLS: Deal Sealed, Orlando in Pole Position! According to explosive revelations by Manu Carreño on the show “El Larguero” this Wednesday, the transfer has now been internally approved. “I’m told that Griezmann’s departure is sealed. Two trusted sources confirmed it to me,” the journalist stated. Despite the Frenchman’s crucial role in recent matches, the chances of seeing him leave during this transfer window – still open in MLS – are said to be far higher than expected. Explosive timing, with Atlético still competing in the Champions League and the Copa del Rey.
Griezmann’s Final Matches Before His Move to MLS
The plan is reportedly already mapped out. Griezmann would play three more matches before saying goodbye. First, this Saturday away at Oviedo at the Tartiere stadium. Then a clash against FC Barcelona in the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final. Finally, an emotional farewell at the Metropolitano against Real Sociedad on March 7, offering one last salute to the colchonero supporters after 478 appearances in the red-and-white shirt.
Last week, following the victory against Club Bruges, Manu Carreño revealed that the Florida-based club had been working behind the scenes for weeks to finalize the deal. A departure prepared since last summer, with the player’s agreement. However, his importance within Diego Simeone’s squad – far beyond expectations this season – had delayed the move. This time, the American dream appears closer than ever.
