Can Antoine Griezmann pull one over his 'friend' Diego Godin when Barcelona host Inter Milan?

Antoine Griezmann could not hold back his emotions during the farewell press conference of his former Atletico Madrid teammate Diego Godin - tears rolled down his cheeks while listening to the defender's speech. The two players shared a unique bond in the dressing room and it was no coincidence that both of them decided to leave the club at the same time, marking the end of an era.

It is believed that the French striker extended his stay with the Rojiblancos for another year back in 2018 as he could not turn down Godin's request.

The two had been inseparable during their stay in the Spanish capital and the fact that Griezmann named Godin as the godfather of his daughter is another testimony to their profound friendship.
