Antoine Griezmann generates a new dilemma in Can Barça

Antoine Griezmann gave a jump of quality with the FC Barcelona in this 2021 and focused in justifying the 120 million euros that the club paid by him to the Athletic of Madrid. The French, with a silent work, happened to turn into one of the key players of the approach of Ronald Koeman and achieved to form a lethal connection with Leo Messi.

19 goals and 12 assistances summary the season of 'Grizzi' in the Barça, but goes much more there: the French appeared in the most necessary moments (in the traced back in the Glass of Rey) and certified that, in addition to being a goleador, also contributes in the creation of game and in defensive works, when the team requires. His good performance moved it to the French selection, where also is being essential for Didier Deschamps.

Griezmann Has played the three parties, to date, contributing a goal. It has been one of the 'engines' offensive of 'them bleus', beside Kylian Mbappé and Karim Benzema, dressing, besides like the forward that more metres has visited in the Eurocopa. In definite, the 'Principito' has known to answer, justify and confirm that it is in a moment 'of sweet' futbolísticamente, thing that in the City Condal do not ignore, all the contrary.

However, with Griezmann in the Barça there are two realities. In the Ciutat Esportiva all are happy with his performance and Ronald Koeman, in fact, always has manifested that it is a very important player for the team. His mates keep the same impression of the 'Principito', but from the dispatches of the Camp Nou the situation is very different, because although they know that it is a player with a lot of potential and goal, also would be an option for 'break' the market of signings.

From it does some months has been on the table that Joan Laporta 'load' to Griezmann this summer because it is not a player that convinces him to the one hundred percent. With the arrival of Memphis Depay and Sergio the 'Kun' Agüero the rumours and the possibility that the Barça put in the market to the forward of 30 years has taken even more strength... By different reasons.

It is necessary to begin with that andl Barça needs to sell to generate 'cash' (and sanear a bit his accounts), in addition to freeing the mass salarial, that supposes 110% of the annual income of the club. Besides, the club is to the earring of the new tope salarial for the season 2021-2022, that goes to wane drastically by the economic losses of the last year.

The exit of Griezmann... A solution?

With all this panorada, in addition to the 'overbooking' in the forward (nine forwards in total), is evident that the Barça has to do cleaning and Antoine Griezmann has the 'profile' ideal to go out, by his high price and because, in theory, is one of the players that are not 'intocables', compared with Messi, Depay, Agüero and Ansu Fati.

This yes, his exit will be more than complicated because the Barça will not leave him leave, if it arrives the case, by a low price, taking in account the 120 millions that paid by him in 2019. Besides, 'Grizzi' is happy in Barcelona and would not be interested in going out. In any case, a new folder of 'urgent' for Joan Laporta.
