The thirty-three (33) years old Griezmann was a key part of French sides which reached three major finals – losing the Euro 2016 final on home soil, winning the 2018 World Cup and being beaten in the 2022 World Cup final as well as winning the 2021 UEFA Nations League.

The Atlético Madrid forward’s last appearances for France came during this month’s Nations League games, where he was part of the team that was beaten in the Euro 2024 semifinal by Spain.

“It is with a heart full of memories that I close this chapter of my life,” Griezmann posted on social media. “Thank you for this magnificent, tricolor adventure, and see you soon.”

“Today, with profound emotion, I announce my retirement as a France national team player,” Griezmann said, adding, “After ten incredible years marked by challenges, successes and unforgettable moments, it’s time for me to turn the page and make room for the new generation.

“Wearing this shirt has been an honour and a privilege. I leave the France national team with a sense of pride and gratitude. I had the honour of representing our country, and the chance to experience extraordinary moments, like becoming a world champion.

“I’ll continue to follow Les Bleus with passion. I’m convinced that the future is bright and I can’t wait to see the next generation shine,” he added.

Griezmann made his France debut in March 2014, in a 2-0 friendly win over the Netherlands. His coach throughout his international career has been Didier Deschamps, who has been in charge of his country since 2012.
