Barcelona forward Antoine Griezmann has been showing off his Arsenal team from 2023 on Football Manager this evening.
This prompted some excited reactions from Gunners fans – and some grumpy responses from Barca supporters as they questioned their new signing playing with another team.

Arsenal striker Alexandre Lacazette then got involved, asking his fellow Frenchman why he wasn’t in his squad.
Griezmann then responded by informing Lacazette he’d sold him to Huddersfield Town for £23.5million, which doesn’t seem the most attractive prospect.
Griezmann has just told Laca that he sold him to Huddersfield in 2023 for £23.5M on his Arsenal Football Manager game ??? https://t.co/ZWc36I9ZIJ

Lacazette is a key player for AFC in real life, but then it’s not impossible that he could one day end up a Huddersfield player.
Still, the former Lyon man will probably be hoping Griezmann doesn’t become his manager any time soon, even if he has put together what looks a pretty great Arsenal squad on the popular football management computer game.
Some fans have even responded with pictures of Lacazette in a Huddersfield kit…
