# Arsenal: Fans don’t care about missing out on Antoine Griezmann

**Arsenal fans don’t care about having potentially missed out on striker Antoine Griezmann after reports over a move emerged.**

\[freshpress-poll id=”250124″\]

[According to The Athletic’s David Ornstein](https://theathletic.co.uk/1289974/2019/10/14/live-qa-put-your-football-questions-to-david-ornstein-mon-14-oct-12pm-bst-7am-et/), the north London giants missed out on signing the France international after they failed to qualify for the Champions League in 2017.

The club missed out on Champions League qualification after finishing one point behind fourth-placed Liverpool in 2017.

After a proposed move to the Emirates failed, Griezmann, 28, moved to Barcelona in this summer’s transfer window for a fee believed to be [€120m](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/jul/12/antoine-griezmann-joins-barcelona-from-atletico-madrid-for-120m) (roughly £104.6m).

Since the failure to sign the Frenchman, Arsenal have signed [Alexandre Lacazette](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/40496970) and [Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/42859716) in deals costing £46.5m and £56m.

[Lacazette](https://tribuna.com/en/arsenal/news/3486011/) is thought to be good friends with Griezmann, with the Barcelona man also reported to be a fan of the Gunners.

Despite hearing the news that Griezmann could’ve joined the club, fans took to Twitter to say they don’t really care.

Here is a selection of tweets from Gooners:
