Madridthquo;Atletico" club and French national team's attacking leader Antoine Griezmann believes that he deserves to be recognized as the best football player competing in Europe this year.
Tomorrow, in the UEFA headquarters, the best player of the 2015-16 season will be announced. Apart from A. Griezmann, two UEFA Champions League winners from Real Madrid - Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo are also in contention for the award.
A. Griezmann fell behind his main competitor C. Ronaldo in both the Champions League and the European Championship final. Nevertheless, the Frenchman demonstrated the highest level and became the top scorer of EURO 2016 with six goals.
"I am proud to be in the final three. It means that I am on the right path and should continue this journey," the forward was quoted by "24sata".
"I don't want to appear arrogant, but I believe I deserve to win the title of the best European player. I had a great season both in the club and the national team.
Unfortunately, I failed to win the main trophy with either of them. That's why I feel a great bitterness," A. Griezmann concluded.
