GRIEZMANN HAPPY AT ATLETICO MADRID, SAYS KOKE

Atletico Madrid midfielder Koke said Antoine Griezmann was delighted after ending his run without a goal.

Antoine Griezmann is happy at Atletico Madrid after returning to goalscoring ways, according to midfielder Koke.

Griezmann ended a run of eight games without a goal for his club with an incredible overhead kick in a 2-0 win over Roma in the Champions League on Wednesday.

The France international also continues to be linked with a move away from Atletico to the likes of Barcelona and Manchestrer United, but teammate Koke said Griezmann was happy at the LaLiga giants.

"Antoine is happy right now," Koke said after Atletico's victory.

"After a while without scoring he could help the team with a goal and an assist to Kevin [Gameiro] for the second goal.

"He left happy after the match because he wasn't in a good streak."

Atletico, unbeaten in LaLiga but sitting fourth, are back in action with a trip to Levante on Saturday.
