Griezmann to Tottenham?

18 July 2014 - 08:14

Tottenham Hotspur have become the latest Premier League club to join the race in signing Real Sociedad forward Antoine Griezmann.

Man Utd set to hold contract talks with experienced star

New Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino is reportedly eager to sign the French international, who rejected a new two-year deal with Sociedad earlier this month.

Pochettino has been in charge at White Hart Lane for over a month now, but hasn't signed any new players yet.

Spurs need to splash the cash to sign the Frenchman as Sociedad won't let him leave the club unless his £23.9 million buy-out clause is met.

Greizmann, 23, scored 20 goals in 49 appearances for the La Liga side last season and was impressive enough to earn a call-up into France's World Cup squad.

Bayern Munich are also interested in the young Frenchman and are lining him up as a replacement for Swiss player Xhedran Shaqiri, who is expected to leave the Allianz Arena this summer.
