00:00I would like to thank the footballer Griezmann.
00:05We met him when he joined the club, when he was 22 or 23 years old.
00:11We grew up together, both in the club and in his national team.
00:18He has done great things in his national team.
00:22The other day he told me that he played 400 games.
00:26I was the coach who played him more than 400 times.
00:30I admire him for his work, for his way of life,
00:37for the way he interpreted his departure from the national team,
00:42with a lot of hierarchy, a lot of understanding,
00:47awareness of what happens to a footballer when he grows up.
00:52Today he continues to give us talent, hierarchy, personality,
00:57and we will surely enjoy him until he is with us.
01:01And when he doesn't have to be with us, if it ever happens,
01:05to accompany him, because he is one of those who will surely
01:10be among the best footballers in the history of Atletico Madrid.
