ANTOINE GRIEZMANN thinks he he would publicly come out as gay if he was a homosexual footballer.
But the France international accepts it must be an incredibly tough step to make in a high-profile setting.
Griezmann, 26, said: “Players do not come out of the closet because they are afraid.
“We have to appear hard and strong but we are afraid of what people will say about us.
“Of course, I have nothing against anyone, I respect everybody.
“I think I would [come out as gay]. But of course, that’s easier said when you do not have to go through it.
