Barca sign Griezmann for €120m after lengthy pursuit

BARCELONA, July 12 — Barcelona have signed French World Cup winner Antoine Griezmann from Atletico Madrid for €120 million on a five-year deal after paying his release clause, the La Liga champions said in a statement today.

“FC Barcelona has paid the €120 million buyout clause to release Antoine Griezmann from Atletico Madrid,” the La Liga champions said in a statement. Barca’s capture of Griezmann ends their long-running pursuit of the Frenchman which has been the worst-kept secret in Spanish football, with the Catalans having tried to lure the forward to the Nou Camp since November 2017.

He signed a new deal with Atletico until 2023 containing a buy-out clause of €200 million, which dropped to €120 million on July 1 2019.
