Griezmann Given Go-Ahead to Talk with Orlando City
Griezmann will join Orlando City this summer after completing paperwork during the March international break, aiming to conclude his Atlético Madrid career with trophies.
- On Sunday, Antoine Griezmann traveled to Florida during the March international break to finalize a deal to join Orlando City this summer, with Atlético Madrid approving the trip.
- Griezmann and Atlético say the timing respects the club's season climax, aiming to 'leave through the front door' before departing after Champions League and Copa del Rey finals.
- Having faced Lionel Messi in the 2022 World Cup final, Griezmann has made 792 club appearances and scored 298 goals for La Liga clubs and posted 44 goals with 38 assists for France before retiring in 2024.
- He can sign a pre-contract now, but playing eligibility arrives on July 13, with his earliest debut on July 22 against the San Jose Earthquakes and no early match versus Inter Miami and Lionel Messi.
- MLS will switch to a 14-game sprint season in 2027, and Griezmann's arrival would add to the league's roster of global stars amid Orlando's rebuild after Óscar Pareja's exit and sitting 13th after five games.
