The fact that all the rumors of him leaving went quiet these last few weeks was probably a big hint about what was happening with Messi.
Griezmann will have same development Benzema had after Cristiano left & Bale massively declined.
This "devolopment of Benzema" has always been overstated btw, as he had great seasons with both of them in the team
Benzema was inconsistent & most people viewed him as a meme player.
Now he's scoring 20+ LaLiga goals every season & single-handedly carrying the offense. Benzema is on an another level compared to pre-2018.
Look, we've been over this before, statistically some of his best seasons were with Cristiano and Bale in the team.
Of course he gets a greater share of the goals now, percentage-wise, with no one else to carry to the burden.
