TIL Desk Sports/ Atletico Madrid’s France forward Antoine Griezmann has no regrets about staying at the Liga club despite a difficult start to the season which has seen him booed by his own fans.
The 26-year-old was linked with a move to Manchester United in the last transfer window but signed a new contract with Atletico after the club were banned from registering new players until January due to the illegal transfer of minors.
The Frenchman has endured his worst campaign so far in his four seasons with Atletico, who are in fourth place and 10 points behind Liga leaders Barcelona while also on the verge of their earliest exit from the Champions League since 2009.
Diego Simeone’s side, finalists in 2014 and 2016 and semi-finalists last season, face AS Roma on Wednesday and their fate in qualifying for the last 16 is out of their hands. “I don’t regret staying, it was my choice and I would make it again even if we had lost seven games in a row,” Griezmann said in an interview .
