Real Sociedad make big profit in Barcelona's deal for Griezmann

Spanish side Real Sociedad have been left to rejoice after Barcelona confirmed the signing of Antoine Griezmann from Atletico Madrid.

While the Los Rojiblancos continue to state that they will not accept the release clause of 120 million euros since the deal was done in March, it is Sociedad who have received a sell on fee in the deal.

Out of the 120 million euros, 24 million euros have gone to the Basque club's coffers as they had included a sell-on clause of 20 percent in the deal when they had sold the Frenchman to Atleti in the summer of 2014.
