Atletico Madrid have re-signed Antoine Griezmann from Barcelona on a permanent deal.

The French footballer has signed a contract until 2026, having left the club in a £103m deal three years ago.

Griezmann re-joined Atletico on loan from Barca in August 2021 and it was extended for this season in the summer.

An Atletico statement read: "In 304 official matches as a rojiblanco, Griezmann has distributed 59 assists and scored 144 goals, becoming the fourth top scorer in our history, surpassing another legend such as José Eulogio Gárate and just two goals from Campos, Atlético's third top scorer. The Atlético '8' has been proclaimed champion of the Spanish Super Cup in 2014, the UEFA Europa League and the European Super Cup in 2018.

"In this campaign, the French attacker has participated in all league and continental commitments played by the team - a total of eleven - in which he has scored three goals and has distributed two goal assists."
