Barcelona defender Samuel Umtiti, says Atletico’s Antoine Griezmann is special and can be important to Barcelona.
Griezmann is strongly linked with a switch to the LaLiga champions having fired Atletico to Europa League glory with a double in a 3-0 final defeat of Marseille. The France international is an international team-mate of Umtiti and the centre-back appears hopeful they will play together at Camp Nou next season.
“He is a fantastic player, we know his quality,” Umtiti said. In any group, he would be important. He could help us a lot.
