Antoine Griezmann Repeats Desire to Come to MLS, Play With Carlos Vela at LAFC

Antoine Griezmann hasn't been shy in expressing his wishes to eventually come to MLS, and he's at it again.

Griezmann, after winning the UEFA Super Cup with Atletico Madrid on Wednesday, dropped another hint at a future move in his postmatch remarks–with LAFC his apparent desired destination. The lure, in addition to the other assets LAFC has to offer, is Carlos Vela, Griezmann's former teammate from Real Sociedad.

"Carlos, big hug. Wait for me in Los Angeles in MLS, I'm coming," Griezmann said in a post-match interview with Univision, answering a question that mentioned Vela.
