The top scorer in Atleti’s history has extended his contract with the club, which was due to expire in 2026.

Antoine Griezmann and Atlético de Madrid have reached an agreement to renew the French footballer's contract until June 30, 2027.

The striker joined our club in 2014. After nine seasons with Atleti – spread over two spells – he is the top scorer in the club’s history with 197 goals, surpassing the 173 netted by the great Luis Aragonés. He is also the eighth player with the most appearances (442), as well as the third non-Spanish player on the list behind only his teammates Oblak and Correa.

Griezmann has won one Spanish Super Cup (2014), one UEFA Super Cup (2018) and one UEFA Europa League (2018), in which he netted a brace in the final in our 3-0 win over Olympique de Marseille. A brilliant end to the club season was followed by the World Cup that same year in Russia, where he was crowned champion with France, playing a key role for Les Bleus.

Moreover, the Frenchman scored the first ever goal at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano.

This season, Griezmann has played 53 matches, netting 16 goals and providing nine assists.
