Griezmann began his career playing for hometown clubUF Mâconnais.[11]While there, he embarked on several trials with professional clubs to earn a spot in one of their youth academies, but was rejected because clubs questioned his size and lightweight frame.[11]In 2005, while on trial withMontpellier,Griezmann played in afriendlymatch against theyouth academyofParis Saint-Germainin Paris, and impressed several clubs, notably Spanish clubReal Sociedad,whose scouts were attending the event. Following the match, the club's officials offered Griezmann a one-week trial inSan Sebastián,which he accepted. He was later offered a second-week stay at the club. The club then contacted his parents and formally offered the player a youth contract.

Player profile[edit]

Style of play[edit]

A quick, modern, and versatile left-footedforward,with an eye for goal, Griezmann has been described as a "team player", and is capable of occupying several offensive positions in or behind the main attacking line, due to his technical skills, vision, ability to drop deep and link-up play between the forward and midfielders, or score many goals: he has been deployed as a mainstriker,in a central role as anattacking midfielder,as asecond striker,as afalse 9,or as awinger,on either flank.[137][170][171][172][173]Griezmann is an accurate finisher with either foot from both inside and outside the area, and is also good in the air and accurate with his head, in spite of his relatively small stature.[174]

In addition to his ability to score and create goals, he has also been praised for his work-rate, attacking movement, positional sense, and ability to interpret the game, which, combined with his pace, mobility and energy, enables him to make effective attacking runs to beat the defensive line.[175][176][177]He has been noted by various sources as having a comparatively low rate of scoring from penalties.[61][178][179][180]Since the 2022 World Cup, Griezmann has been used in a deeper role by France national team manager Deschamps, often playing as acentral midfielder.[181]

Reception[edit]

UEFAchief technical officerIoan Lupescu,who led the panel of technical observers that named Griezmann as the best player of Euro 2016, said that he "works hard for his team and possesses technique, vision and quality finishing" and branded him "a threat in every game he played".[137]While his club form for Barcelona remained sub-par, Griezmann's performances for the France national team prompted head coach Didier Deschamps to label him "one of the greatest players of all-time".[182]

Outside football[edit]

Personal life[edit]

Since 2011, Griezmann has been in a relationship with Erika Choperena, a Spanish native of theBasque Country.They got married on 15 June 2017.[183]They had their first child, a daughter, in April 2016.[184]The couple's second child was born in April 2019. In April 2021, the couple had their third child, a daughter; all three siblings share the same birthday.[185]Griezmann isCatholic.[186][187]

Griezmann's sister was a survivor of the siege of theBataclan theatrein theNovember 2015 Paris attacks,which took place as he was playing againstGermanyat the Stade de France, which was also site of an explosion in the same attacks.[188][189][7][190]

However, following the video where Griezmann was seen laughing at derogatory racial comments made by teammate Ousmane Dembélé surfaced online in July 2021, Konami announced they had terminated Griezmann's contract as the brand ambassador.[199]

", continuing with" What kind of backward language is that? "before zooming in while laughing on one of the technicians faces, mentioning" Are you technologically advanced in your country or not? "[207][208]Griezmann apologised for the video on Twitter, but denied accusations of racism, saying "I completely refute the accusations against me and I am sorry if I have offended my Japanese friends. I have always engaged against all forms of discrimination. For a couple of days now some people want to pass me for a man that I am not."[209]
