Atletico Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann recently shared his admiration for Real Madrid’s attacking trio of Kylian Mbappé, Vinícius Júnior, and Rodrygo, offering praise to all three but revealing a special fondness for Rodrygo.

Griezmann highlighted his history with Mbappé, noting that they were teammates in the French national team and won the 2018 World Cup together. He also commended Vinícius for his consistent danger on the field, describing him as a tough player who is always a threat due to his dribbling and pace.

However, when asked to choose between the three forwards, Griezmann expressed a particular appreciation for Rodrygo.

He responded: “It’s difficult because Mbappe has been a teammate of mine, I enjoyed a lot alongside him, we won a World Cup together.

“Vinicius, I think he is a very tough player in the sense that he will always dribble past you, always dangerous, and that is what I like about him.

“But I have a soft spot for Rodrygo because he seems to be a very intelligent player, very calm. It doesn’t matter where he plays, left or right or in the middle, he will always perform at 100 percent and that is why he draws my attention.”

Rodrygo, who joined Real Madrid from Santos in 2019, has been in impressive form, scoring over 13 goals and registering eight assists in 38 games across all competitions this season.

His versatility and consistency have clearly caught the eye of Griezmann.
