Atletico Madrid forward, Antoine Griezmann has recently shared his thoughts on Real Madrid attacking forwards of Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius, and Rodrygo.
Griezmann showered praises on all three players but has a ‘soft spot’ for Rodrygo.
The former Barcelona star said Rodrygo draws his attention because he always performs 100 percent.
Speaking with DAZN Futbol, Griezmann was asked to pick between all three forwards.
He responded: “It’s difficult because Mbappé 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 has netted over 13 goals and registered eight assists in 38 games across all competitions for Real Madrid this season.
The Brazilian international joined the Los Blancos from Santos in 2019.
