The situation of Antoine Griezmann already generates uncertainty and could finish of 'break' the good relations between the FC Barcelona and the Athletic of Madrid. The French, that has begun his second year of cession in the picture 'colchonero', only has played after the 63 minutes of party. Against the Celtic of Vigo (4-1) was the same history.

The big problem is that there is an important difference between the criteria of both teams regarding the clause of compulsory purchase of Griezmann, valued in 40 million euros. From the Barça have left clear that they have to pay said figure because it already has contested 50% of the parties in which it was available in the first year of cession, whereas the Madrilenian understand that it is on the total of the two seasons.

From the Spotify Camp Nou have glided that it foresees legal actions in front of the position of the Athletic of Madrid. The Barça could sue to the club, place understand that they are forced to pay the 40 'kilos' like this this season do not play 50% of the parties in which it was available. They understand that this forms part of a 'show' and that, independently of what suceda now, the same have to make the payment.

In the Cívitas Metropolitan, on the other hand, do case omiso to the indictments of the Barça. In press conferences, the 'Cholo' Simeone has dribbled in a few opportunities the subject and even said that "where there is pattern does not command sailor". That it play from the minute 63 is order of the leaders of the club and he, like trainer, is not in disposal to take part.

Before the goleada in front of the Celtic of Vigo, in which Griezmann went back to ingresar in the 63', Enrique Cerezo was questioned in this regard and stood out that they have not received any warning of the Barça or much less a demand. "I do not know it, it has not arrived us at all. We do not know if they have sued us or no. At any rate today it does not touch to speak of this", aimed.

Question of interpretation

Likewise, it did not want to deepen on which is the correct interpretation of the cession of the 'Principito', remembering that the Barça asks that they pay the 40 'kilos' because it played more than half of the parties in which it was available, whereas the Athletic aims that they take in account the two courses. So that suceda, would have to play more than 45 minutes. "Everything is possible in this life", said without more.
