Tottenham have performed disastrously this season and they should be up for some changes in their squad in the upcoming summer. The summer transfer window is approaching and certainly Ange Postecoglou will look at the bases to cover in the summer. The club definitely need a high-profile signing who can influence the squad to perform better.
Since the departure of Harry Kane, Spurs haven’t had a high-profile iconic player who could serve as the motivation for the squad. It is time that the owners get into the transfer market to bring about such a player who can influence the squad in the right way. Spanish news outlet Fichajes has reported that Atletico Madrid’s legend Antoine Griezmann wants to leave the club in the summer and wants to try out a different challenge.
Antoine Griezmann wants to leave Atletico Madrid this summer
He has been a sensational player for the Rojiblancos in his two tenures with the club. In our opinion, Spurs should definitely make the move for the Frenchman. The 34-year-old still has the talent and quality to provide the spark for the Lillywhites for two years and he would be the perfect hard-working marquee signing the team would need. Moreover, Griezmann would like to get a taste of Premier League football as well and with him wanting to make the move, it won’t cost Spurs too much as well.
Griezmann has scored 8 goals in 28 matches so far in the La Liga 2024/2025 season. He has amassed a G/A of 13 for this season. The Frenchman passes the ball roughly 45.90 times during a game with a pass completion rate of 79.54%. He also plays 1.80 key passes each game. Overall, Griezmann’s xA (Expected Assists) output is 0.27 per 90 minutes.
The Atletico man is a footballing chameleon, adapting seamlessly to any role thrown his way. The French maestro’s vision and technique are world-class, threading passes that unlock defences with surgical precision. His work rate is relentless—tracking back to defend as fiercely as he attacks.
Griezmann’s finishing is lethal, whether it’s a curling shot from distance or a poacher’s tap-in. The Frenchman is not the biggest, but his agility and footballing IQ more than compensate. Now 34, his experience shines through, guiding younger teammates with a calm, understated leadership. Griezmann’s versatility and consistency make him a timeless asset on the pitch.
Why should Spurs definitely make the move?
Spurs should jump at the chance to nab Antoine Griezmann this summer. With the Frenchman itching for a fresh challenge after Atletico, he is the kind of game-changer that Tottenham have been crying out for.

The Tottenham attack lacks that killer edge—Griezmann’s vision, finishing, and relentless work rate could transform them into proper contenders. At 34, he is no spring chicken, but his experience could mentor their young guns. If Tottenham can snag him at a decent price, he would be the spark to push the club over the top. Go for it, Levy!
