Although Atletico Madrid's coach Diego Simeone recently said that the club's star Antoine Griezmann can make whatever decision he wants regarding his future, Manchester United received some bad news. The Red Devils team has been considered a favorite to acquire the French national team striker since the summer, but now, according to the English newspaper The Sun, Chelsea from London has decided to join the battle for his signature.
Jose Mourinho is very impressed with this 26-year-old footballer, and according to a source, Man United has indeed made some progress in negotiations. However, the aristocrats' manager Antonio Conte sees Griezmann as their main target for the offseason.
Chelsea's main advantage over their competitors is that they are almost guaranteed to win the Premier League title at the moment, as well as playing in the UEFA Champions League, which United may not achieve.
As for the price of Griezmann's transfer, it is still unclear. However, his performance this season with 22 goals and 11 assists in over 40 games indicates that it will certainly not be low.
