Griezmann is still a fresh signing for Atletico Madrid and the only way he can leave if one of the saudi teams offers a lot of money. They already wasted a lot so this can still happen. Griezmann isnt that young anymore so this option still isnt off the table. Transfer window in saudi arabia is longer then europe for 3 weeks so still things can happen.
It just seem like the Saudi people are trying to raid Europe, they after almost all the good players in Europe because they want to improve their league. They are using money to lure players and since ronaldo joined everyone feel it’s the best move for them. It all up to Athletico Madrid to decide if they are willing to let go of Griezemann because the Saudi people always offer plenty of money and I believe Athletico Madrid will earn more than they invested in Griezmann from the deal.
Indeed, from what we have watched, Barcelona impressive game has shown the public that they will be able to defend the title next season. So real madrid must be able to overcome the gap that has become a weak point in their squad depth after the series of negative results they got in friendly matches.
Barcelona have improved drastically since the arrival of Xavi, they even dominated La liga last season and won the title. I think they can do the same but it maybe a little bit different and more challenging this upcoming season because Real Madrid have made lots of preparations and added new players to the squad. For Barcelona to be able to win they need to add new players also but they seem to be financial problems now. They can challenge well fo the title though.
