Atletico Madrid Forward wants to crown a great year with Champions League win

Antoine Griezmann is looking forward to a red-and-white future, revealing he is close to renewing his contract with Atletico Madrid.

With less than two weeks until the Champions League final against Real Madrid in Milan, the forward expressed his desire to stay with the Rojiblancos.

"I am happy at Atletico and am close to renewing my contract," he told Canal Plus France television.

"We are on track."

He also revealed that he is not waiting for a call from fellow Frenchman Zinedine Zidane to play at Real.

"No, he hasn't called me but I am good at Atleti," he said.

"First he would have to call me and then I would tell him that I am happy here.

"He is a great person and a great player," he added jokingly.

The Frenchman is looking forward to the European Championship in his home country.

"I am very pleased with everything that has happened to me in 2016.

"I hope we can crown it by winning in Milan and then Euro 2016, which will make me incredibly happy.

"This is going to be the first Champions League final for me and I hope to be lifting the cup.

"I want to win the trophy and have a great game."
