The best French football player of the year may wear "Manchester United" socks from next season.
"The Sun" reports that "Manchester United" is starting negotiations with Madrid's "Atletico" about forward Antoine Griezmann, who has been linked to the "Red Devils" not for the first time.
It is said that this upcoming summer, A. Griezmann will be a priority purchase for Jose Mourinho. The English champions intend to pay up to £60 million for him.
A. Griezmann will be bought as a long-term replacement for Wayne Rooney. It is believed that the "Man Utd" captain will leave for the United States after this season.
The 25-year-old forward has a contract with "Atletico" until 2021. This season, the Frenchman has not been performing as well as the "Rojiblancos" fans would like - he has scored nine goals in 21 matches so far.
