There are athletes who are on the move and full of ideas in their heads and Antoine Griezmann is clearly part of that. The star of the Blues always has a thousand projects in mind and he does not hesitate to carry them out. At the end of a rather complicated season with his club Atletico Madrid, after two complicated years on the Barcelona side, Paul Pogba’s great friend has decided to embark on a new business linked to his passion for horse racing. Erika Choperena’s husband has been a horse lover for a very long time and in December 2019 he decided to set up his own stable with his father, Alain.
A bet won for the world champion since with Écurie Griezmann, he quickly became a major player in the world of horse racing. Today at the head of a stable of 16 horses, Antoine Griezmann had a fine nose since some of them even won fifths, as Closer tells us in an article devoted to the father of three children. If he has to face competition from another very popular sportsman in the person of Tony Parker, who has also started horse racing, Kylian Mbappé’s teammate is already very successful.
He sells a mare for more than 1 million euros!
Proof of this great success, Antoine Griezmann offered one of his females, Txope, at the famous Deauville auction. A particularly successful horse since he won two of the eleven races he contested, thus bringing in nearly 74,000 euros. And Txope was very courted since during the auction, she was bought for 1.2 million euros! An astronomical sum and even if the footballer has already been a millionaire for years, he must certainly be very happy with this great sale.
On her Instagram account, the Griezmann team wanted to thank Txope, who will now leave the structure for new adventures. “Thank you Txope for all the happiness you brought us. Today you are leaving us but we will continue to follow you. We hope you will be happy as you were able to be with us”can we read with a beautiful photo of the mare.
