Luis Suarez is not worried about Antoine Griezmann. If the Uruguayan recognizes that the first season of the newcomer in the attack of FC Barcelona has been complicated, there is nothing abnormal in his opinion.

"Those who have been here for many years know how difficult it is to get to a club like Barcelona, ​​where the requirements are maximum," Suarez recalled in an interview with Mundo Deportivo. You must learn to live with this pressure demanded by Barça and Antoine understands it. "

"We want to help him"

Injured in the thigh on Saturday during the match against Valladolid, Grizou will miss the last two La Liga games, scheduled for Thursday and Sunday. His return is hoped for the knockout round of the Champions League against Naples on August 8. And the potential Final 8 which will follow. But whatever happens at the end of the season, there is no question of seeing the Frenchman leave after only a year in Catalonia, says Suarez.

"He is a player who must be kept. He is very appreciated and much loved in the locker room. Antoine went through difficult times because he was not successful on the field, but he has our support, he says. He talks to a lot of his teammates. We want to help him gain confidence, score goals and give assists. Watch his spectacular game against Villarreal. It never fails to become the norm.
