Antoine Griezmann makes his summer transfer decision

Griezmann eyeing Barcelona move

Antoine Griezmann makes his summer transfer decision

25 March 2018 - 14:44

Reported Manchester United target Antoine Griezmann is reportedly leaning towards a move to Barcelona at the end of the season.

  • Chelsea eyeing surprise move for former Arsenal striker
  • Chelsea & Man Utd want to sign Belgian winger
  • The France international has enjoyed another fine season with Atletico Madrid this term, with 23 goals and a further 13 assists across all competitions.

    Griezmann, 27, had initially considered a move to United during the previous summer transfer window, but Atleti's failure to overturn a transfer ban meant that he stayed put out of loyalty.

    According to Sport, Griezmann has no restrictions over a move this time around, and he is said to favour a move to Barcelona at the end of the campaign.

    The Frenchman is currently on wages of around £193,000-a-week, but he is supposedly willing to take a pay-cut, which may be adjusted in the form of incentives by Barca.

    Atletico Madrid have given no indications over the potential move, but the Catalan giants are said to have already made initial contact with the player's entourage to push through a summer switch.
