Atletico Madrid French forward has had extended holiday after Euro 2016

As Diego Simeone addresses concerns about his forward line in the summer transfer market, Atletico Madrid have formulated a plan for Antoine Griezmann's return to training.

The Frenchman was named player of the tournament at Euro 2016, and was given an extended holiday by Los Colchoneros after he reached the final on July 10.

He is set to return to training on Monday August 8 but has missed the bulk of the first-team's high intensity physical training in Cerro del Espino and Los Angeles de San Rafael under fitness coach Oscar 'Profe' Ortega.

In order to boost Griezmann's fitness ahead of the start of the new La Liga season, a specific training plan has been drawn up for the 25-year-old to follow.

Griezmann will work alone and will have to follow the same training regimen the rest of the squad did at the beginning of pre-season.

There are no expectations that the club's star will be able to take part in the La Liga opener courtesy of suspension, but with tailored individual training the second fixture against Leganes has been pencilled in as Griezmann's return date.
