He signed for them, he played for them and he has the jersey to prove it – but Antoine Griezmann's big win in Barcelona could still be blocked.

"It's possible to block the transfer of a player," Tebas told Onda Cero.
"La Liga will have to decide what course of action to take. [Atletico] filed a complaint and questioned the need to transmit Griezmann's license to Barcelona.
"A process has been put in place and those who supervise it will have to come to solve the case."
The argument put forward by Atletico is the following: Barcelona waited until 1 July was over for the Griezmann release clause to go from $ 200 million to $ 120 million – a considerable relative saving for a star of French quality. .
Barcelona then pulled the trigger on July 12 to force the signing of the deal and save around 143 million Australian dollars.
But Atletico says the long-term contract was concluded long before the deadline and therefore Barca should make up the difference of 80 million euros.
It would be an incredible scene to see Griezmann forced to return to Atletico for a rule violation. With a club with deep pockets in Barcelona, you have the impression that a compromise would indeed be found.
