El Colchonero made Griezmann’s hug with Simeone visible on his social networks; the most obvious gesture of the restart that is for the striker – rediscovered who has given him more shine
Antoine Griezmann, the last signing of Atlético de Madrid, cut his hair, returned to the Wanda Metropolitano stadium and posed with his new red-and-white jersey with the number ‘8’, after restarting his adventure in the team led by Diego Simeone, which he joined this Wednesday to training.
After the reunion with the coach and his teammates and the session that took place between the gym and the exercises on the sidelines on the lawn in the Majadahonda Sports City, the attacker cut his hair, as seen in the images released by the club rojiblanco, already without hair as long as this morning. On social media, some fans had asked him.
He already comes out with short hair both in the snapshot in which he poses with Enrique Cerezo, president of the club, with the red-and-white shirt with the number ‘8’ inside the Wanda Metropolitano stadium as in the photo with Miguel Ángel Gil Marín, CEO of the entity, and Andrea Berta, sports director, at the offices of the Atlético de Madrid, also within the aforementioned field.
SIMEONE’S HUG
In his rerun, the Athletic made visible on their social networks the Griezmann’s hug with Simeone; the most obvious gesture of the restart that is for the striker – rediscovered who has given him more brilliance – his return to the rojiblanco team, with which he only had a recovery session on the sidelines on the pitch this Wednesday, after playing 90 minutes last night with France .

It is the return to his refuge, to his fortress, although the perspective has changed. There are similarities, but also differences with respect to its march in 2019. Simeone is still in command, the French attacker is part of his eleven type even without having debuted – with the very important role he had in the past – and they continue Jan Oblak, Koke Resurrection, Stefan Savic, José María Giménez, Ángel Correa …
They are no longer, however, neither Diego Godín nor Lucas Hernández nor Filipe Luis nor Juanfran Torres nor Thomas Partey nor Saúl Ñíguez nor Álvaro Morata nor Diego Costa, his teammates in his last year at Atlético, as he was and will be again Yannick Carrasco or Thomas Lemar, whose present is nothing like the past of the French winger when he shared the rojiblanco team with Griezmann.
And they have joined Marcos Llorente, Joao Félix, Kieran Trippier, Geoffrey Kondogbia, Matheus Cunha or Luis Suárez, partner in the Barcelona and now, again, in the Atlético, where Griezmann has competition for ownership in a soccer player of the talent of the Portuguese attacker or strapAlthough he apparently starts from the foreseeable eleven, as indisputable as he was for five years, when he scored 133 goals in 257 games between 2014 and 2019.
