The Athletic already pays the consequences of the millionaire renewal of Griezmann

It was very near to be one of the signings of the FC Barcelona 2018-19, but after a serial and a surrealist documentary, Antoine Griezmann remained in the Athletic of Madrid. The French repeated until no more is needed nor desired that his only reasons were sentimental by the effort that the rojiblancos did to guarantee his continuity, although the true is that the economic factor also had a lot that see.

It is likely that the message of the Frenchman have part for real, but the 23 million euros that now earns to the year were the salvaguardia definite for his permanence. The club gave an audible hit on the table launching a serious warning to all his opponents that it no longer is a conjoint seller, and reinforced his sportive project in a year in which the final of the Champions will celebrate in Wanda Metropolitan.

The problem for the 'colchoneros' is that the investment has generated an important disequilibrium, and has conditioned a planning that is to the limit because the box does not give for more. After the one of Macon, the next big aim is the Cholo Simeone, that finish agreement in June of 2019 and could turn into the best paid of all the entity. And if it does not attain , the Inter of Milan carries long threatening his contracting...

Several means inform that some footballers are annoying by the difference salarial, since the scale has burst completely with the bet by the champion of the world. It offered him a quantity of record and besides apuntaló his happiness with two friends, Lucas Hernández, to the that renewed and now is being tempted by the Bayern of Munich, and Thomas Lemar, that cost 70 'kilos' more.

This has caused, to his time, that several renewals have remained in check, with some of the most important pieces in the eleven without having his continuity ensured. With the technician in the first place of the list, Juanfran or Filipe Luis have lost weight, but the vinculacion of Diego Godín also finalises in 2019 and the conversations with Jan Oblak have received a painful frenazo.

Gabi Is pessimistic with the situation of the Athletic

Although in the short term, this gesture has resulted effective and the Athletic is firm applicant to League, Champions and Glass of Rey, has conditioned completely his future, a much more delicate subject if it does not attain the finance that is multiplying to achieve. For the moment, it is practically blocked in winter, and a figure that until does few months was a member of the changing room, does not show too optimistic in front of this perspective.

Gabi Affirmed recently that it does not finish to see it clear with his ex team: "Keep to so many players without having the budget of the biggest is very difficult. The club has to decide where invest and in which players. It is very difficult to keep to the best staff of your history. The club will do the impossible so that Oblak remain . It is not that the Atleti do not want to pay more money to Griezmann, to Oblak... It is that there is not. The club is in a situation complicated, does not have a big budget and is difficult to keep to all".
