Antoine Griezmann helped Orlando City beat Colombus 3-2 over the weekend, and his American adventure already looks vibrant.
According to L’Équipe, the forward arrived in the summer and has quickly injected energy into the club, with early signs of Griezmania in Florida.
After an interview at Orlando City SC’s training centre in the south of the city, sporting director Ricardo Moreira proudly produced a surprise gift, a purple folding director-style chair with GRIZI 7 in gold.
Moreira described Griezmann as first to arrive, often at 6am to watch the sunrise, drink maté and feel the grass and the ball barefoot, calling him an immense professional and a true football devotee.
The Brazilian official secured his signature in March, bringing in the 2018 world champion and Atlético de Madrid’s record scorer with 212 goals. In Florida, Griezmania is only just beginning.
