The club need to give him a deadline for announcing his decision and move on if he doesn't reach a decision. Cannot let their transfer window get destroyed by another player playing games or not knowing what he wants.

He also need to make a decision before the WC for his and France NT's sake. Would be very selfish of him to keep posting ambiguous IG posts and invite the media frenzy during such an important event.
Agree. We can't waste time with another transfer saga.

I'm soooooo much looking forward to getting him here! If we do it before the world cup, we can get exited about next season with him firing up the french attack and demolishing defences in a more attacking-minded system than at Atletico. That will be so much better than the drama-queen Neymar-saga last year, what a bummer. Now we can get exited, don't worry about Suarez being old and slow, and forget Reals late triumph.

About that, some sources say that Barto is unsure now if they will get him or not, its not decided yet, it seems.

an article on the future of Griezmann that I translated:

"Damien Degorre Although he preferred to be fixed before the World Cup, the striker of the Blues could be determined after. Everything has been written about the future of Antoine Griezmann for five months. He was going to evolve, he was certain, under the orders of Ernesto Valverde next season in Barcelona (according to the Catalan daily Sport, January 18). That he wanted everything to be settled before the kick-off of the World Cup (himself in an interview with The Team, March 21). That Lionel Messi would have phoned him personally to convince him to join him (according to the Madrid daily AS, May 20). This, finally, the French would have decided to stay at Atlético de Madrid (according to the daily AS and Marca, May 21). A few days before leaving for Russia, the only certainty on this issue is ... there is not yet one. And, finally, Griezmann would now be ready to wait for his return from the World Cup to make a decision."

So we are going to wait until the end of the world cup for him to make the decision?

Seriously? how annoying.

Move along now. Don’t want another disaster transfer window.

Bolster midfield.

At the very least that tells us that he is not so sure about whether he wants to come. Why do we want a player who has doubts about coming here? If he has a hard time picking and choosing between us and something else, leave him and let him go to that something else.

Move on.

he'll stay at Atleti. if he was leaving he'd just announce it now, we should call his bluff and pull out regardless

please Barto look into Eriksen

If he's staying at Atletico he would have announced it after the Europa win. Instead he keeps dodging questions about his future.

That's not the sign of a player who is going to stay at their current club.
