VIDEO | In NBA Style! Depay's Gift to Griezmann After Becoming an Atlético Legend
The Dutch forward had a true star-like gesture with his teammate after becoming the all-time top scorer in Atlético's history
Last January, Antoine Griezmann reached 174 goals, making him the top scorer in the entire history of Atlético de Madrid. He received recognition and praise, but the most special, or at least the most spectacular gift, came from Memphis Depay.
The Dutch forward gifted him nothing less than a ring in the pure style of an NBA champion. It wasn't a coincidence. Depay knew perfectly well that Griezmann loves the best basketball league in the world.
"You deserve it. I know how much it means to you. This club, the fans, the city. Plus, I know how much you love the NBA!" Depay told the Frenchman as the latter watched images playing inside the case containing the ring.
"I'm going to cry," Griezmann said upon seeing the ring, which was filled with details, like the number 7 shining in the heart of the jewel. An unforgettable gesture from Memphis Depay, who has barely been with the club for a season and a half but has earned the affection of both fans and teammates with gestures like this.
