Antoine Griezmann retires from international football

France forward Antoine Griezmann has officially retired from international football at the age of 33.

The Atletico Madrid star, who made 137 appearances for the French national team, played a crucial role in helping Les Bleus secure the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

“It is with a heart full of memories that I close this chapter of my life. Thank you for this magnificent tricolour adventure and see you soon,” Griezmann announced on social media.

Griezmann’s final appearance for France came during a 2-0 victory against Belgium, where he came on as a substitute. Just days earlier, he had started in a 3-1 Nations League defeat to Italy during the last international break in September.
