Griezmann: Athletico captaincy gives me pride
Antoine Griezmann, Atlético de Madrid striker, pointed out that the issue of voting for the FIFA award ‘The Best’ and the FIFPro, with notable absence is rare.
“It encourages me to continue working as I am doing. It bothers me because it is the FIFA prize, that there is not a French among the finalists is something weird. But good, we to ours, to try to do it the best possible thing, “he said to add that it was rare that Oblak was not among the FIFPro nominees either. “It’s weird, we can not do anything else. We try to do our best. Oblak is the best in the world, “he said in an act by Movistar +.
“I prefer the Golden Ball, it’s more prestigious. It has more history, those who took it were great players. It puts more stars in my eyes, but well, we’ll see, I can not vote so … we’ll see what happens. ”
ABOUT THE CHAMPIONS
The Frenchman said he feels no pressure to contest the Champions League final at the Metropolitan. “First we are going to try to pass the group stage, that last year … I’m sure every game at home will be incredible”.
On his captaincy said that it is a huge illusion to wear the bracelet. “It’s a lot of work on and off the field, being a captain is a pride, it means representing the best way to the fans, the team and the club,” he said, concluding: “The reception of the Metropolitan helped me to try to do better on field. I know I’m important in Atlético. “
