Why Messi is Leading a Protest at Nou Camp Over Griezmann’s Coming

Since Antonio Griezmann announced his move from Atletico Madrid this summer, many clubs have shown their interest in signing the player but Barcelona have remained to be the favourites.

Barcelona fans went into a frenzy when they noticed that their club is making every effort to secure the signature of the Frenchman alongside two Ajax players; Frenkie De Jong and Matthijs De Ligt.

But according to latest reports, Barcelona dressing room is none too happy with the situation.

According to one publication, the players “do not want” Griezmann at the club, will not welcome his signing and he is very much considered “persona non grata” at the Liga champions.

The report goes on to say that the Barcelona players have already made their feelings known to president Josep Maria Bartomeu, which could make bringing him in pretty difficult.

It seems as though Griezmann’s decision to snub Barca last summer and stay at Atletico has not gone down well among the players and it certainly hasn’t been forgotten either.

Apparently, Lionel Messi has also distanced himself with reports that he has called the Frenchman.

Of course, it remains to be seen how much truth there is in the latest report, but it certainly adds further intrigue into where Griezmann will be playing his football next season.

The French star has already said goodbye to Atletico, PSG and Manchester City have both stated they are not interested and now it seems he may not be welcome at Barcelona either.
