The 35-year-old French star, Atlético’s all-time leading scorer with over 210 goals and now 100 assists, bid an emotional goodbye after a 1-0 win over Girona in his final home game. Captain Koke called him the best player, coach Diego Simeone praised him as a friend whose energy lit the dressing room, and legends like Fernando Torres joined tributes that left the stadium in tears. Griezmann reflected on his 2019 Barcelona move as a mistake he didn’t understand at the time, prioritizing the fans’ love over trophies. He’s set to join MLS side Orlando City in July through 2028, seeking family time and new challenges.
