Griezmann admits he wants to renew Atletico contract

An inspired Antoine Griezmann helped Atletico Madrid come from behind to beat Villarreal 3-1 in La Liga on Sunday. The French striker netted his 300th strike for club and country in the win which keeps Atletico fourth, two points behind champions Barcelona, who beat Alaves earlier on.
Following the renewal of coach Diego Simeone's contract, the 32-year-old has hinted at extending his deal with the Spanish side.
"I'm very happy (that Simeone is staying), I think the coach is perfect for this club. It's great that they have reached a deal. Now it's my turn," he said with a chuckle when speaking to the press after Sunday's game.
Atletico are four points clear of fifth place Athletic Bilbao, despite having played one less game than their rivals at the top of the table. Girona remain top of La Liga from second place Real Madrid after both won on Saturday, beating Rayo Vallecano and Valencia respectively.
