Atletico Madrid star Antoine Griezmann will reportedly knock back advances from Real Madrid in order to join Manchester United during the summer transfer window.

  • The France international is regarded as one of the hottest properties in world football after having racked in goals on a regular basis for the La Liga outfit.

    Spanish outlet Diario Gol suggests that Los Blancos president Florentino Perez is keen to add the 25-year-old to his ranks in the summer as he seeksĀ to make a 'Galactico' signing.

    However, Perez's attempts could be dashed in the summer with Griezmann having already told Madrid officials of his desire to join the Red Devils.

    United boss Jose Mourinho has courted a keen interest in Griezmann since the start of the season, and the club are prepared to trigger his £86m release clause in order to bring him to Old Trafford this summer.

    Griezmann has previously been suggested to have finalised a £280,000-a-week contract (The Sun) with Manchester United ahead of his proposed move in July.
