Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are top soccer figures, not only for their quality on the pitch but also for their global media presence. The telecommunications have allowed both players to be known worldwide. A perfect example of this is the social impact of Lionel Messi's arrival in MLS, where people have been willing to pay thousands of dollars just to watch the Argentine play.

Certainly, the generation that was once considered the golden generation of soccer is now slowly making way for new generations. Among the players in the outgoing generation is Antoine Griezmann. The French forward has excelled in his second stint at Atletico Madrid, and he is currently an essential part of Diego Simeone's squad.

Griezmann's talent is such that in 2018, he stated in an interview with Diario AS that after winning the World Cup with France and earning titles with Atletico, he was dining at the same table as Messi and Cristiano.

However, now that he has completed his cycle in Europe, it seems that Griezmann wants to follow in the footsteps of other soccer stars and move to a less demanding league like the MLS.

Are there offers for Griezmann in MLS?

According to SPORT, the 32-year-old forward is not expected to stay in the Spanish capital next season. The Spanish newspaper reports that Antoine is considering a move to MLS and has even received some offers. Therefore, Atletico Madrid is already looking for his replacement. As of now, nothing has been confirmed.
