The striker finally ended speculation about his future on Friday and his France coach is happy he can focus on the World Cup
Didier Deschamps is pleased Antoine Griezmann has "freed his mind" by deciding on his Atletico Madrid future ahead of France's World Cup opener against Australia on Saturday.
Griezmann had been linked with a €100 million move to Barcelona for several months and some reports even claimed he had an agreement with the Catalan giants.
Atletico fans did not take too kindly to such rumours and jeered him towards the end of the campaign, in which he helped the Rojiblancos finish second behind Barca.
