Gabi tells Griezmann: Real Madrid not better than Atletico
Gabi is not convinced Real Madrid would be a step up for Antoine Griezmann following the attacker's admission a move could be an option.
Atletico Madrid captain Gabi cannot imagine Antoine Griezmann leaving the club for Real Madrid as he feels a move to their arch-rivals would not be a step forward.
Griezmann admitted on Monday that playing for a club such as Real Madrid, Barcelona or Bayern Munich at some stage in his career would be a dream come true, although he also stressed he has no intentions of leaving Atletico any time soon.
Gabi has now had his say on his team-mate's future and is not convinced a move to the Santiago Bernabeu side would be the right step in his career.
"I cannot imagine Griezmann playing for another team," Gabi was quoted as saying by AS.
"He is young and can play on any team in the world.
"As of today, Real Madrid are not better than Atletico, I hope this trend continues with us."
Griezmann has been a key figure for Atletico this campaign, scoring 22 goals in 40 appearances in all competitions.
