But, as Atletico's failure to compete in the Champions League, LaLiga and Copa Del Rey made Griezmann consider his future at Wanda Metropolitano.

Nevertheless, the arrival of the 28-year-old striker Camp Nou this season was apparently reportedly reaped rejection from several Catalan team players. Reportedly, some Barca players were hurt by Griezmann's refusal last season, where his move was almost realized but the player instead extended his contract for five years with Atletico.

Barca president, Josep Maria Bartomeu admitted that Griezmann's rejection really hurt the team, but he made sure Barca had welcomed positively his presence in the current team, especially after knowing the quality he had.

"The choice he made last year was not because he did not like Barcelona, ​​but his love for Atletico. And the dressing room is not against us recruiting Griezmann. The players also do not give an opinion to the players who will be recruited, but the technical team that decides. "
