Antoine Griezmann has been one of the stars of Euro 2016, with his goals propelling France into the final against Portugal.

Griezmann leads the scoring charts at Euro 2016 with six goals -- three more than any other player.

His form at the Euros came after a fine season at Atletico Madrid, helping the Spanish club reach the UEFA Champions League final and finish third in La Liga.

Griezmann started off at Spanish club Real Sociedad as a 14-year-old, having been rejected by a number of French teams because of his lack of height.

His form did not go unnoticed, and he represented France at the Under-20 World Cup in 2011, finishing fourth.

Griezmann scored 16 goals for Real Sociedad during the 2013-14 La Liga season.

He went to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil but failed to find the target, and France lost to Germany in the quarterfinals.

Griezmann joined Spanish champion Atletico Madrid ahead of the 2014-15 season in a $33 million deal. He scored 25 goals as Atletico finished third in La Liga.

Griezmann's goals fired Atletico into the 2015-16 Champions League final. Trailing Real Madrid 1-0, Griezmann had the chance to equalize but smashed his penalty against the crossbar. After a 1-1 draw he scored in the ensuing shootout, but Real triumphed. He ended the season with 32 goals in 54 appearances.
