Atletico Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann is planning to return to the French national team, with which he parted ways on September 30, 2024. This information was reported by Get France Football News, citing journalist Romain Molina.
Accordin👍g to the source, the 33-year-old playe🍃r hopes to emulate the story of Zinedine Zidane, the former French midfielder who returned to the national team one and a half years after announcing his retirement from international football and went on to become captain during the 2006 World Cup.
It has been noted that in recent years, Griezmann has felt undervalued within the national teamꦦ. He was particularly affected by the appointment of Kylian Mbappe as captain following the depa𒉰rture of goalkeeper Hugo Lloris from the team.
Griezmann was the top scorer for France in the Euro 2016 tournament, scoring six✨ goals. He also became a world champion with les Bleus in 2018.
The next match for the French national team is scheduled for October 10 at 21:45 GMT+3 aga♏inst Israel as part of the third round of t💮he Nations League.
