Man Utd emerge as Griezmann option with Barcelona and Atletico Madrid at deadlock

 


Manchester United are emerging as a January option for Antoine Griezmann.

On-loan with Atletico Madrid from Barcelona, the striker is at the centre of a dispute over the cost of his permanent option. Barca have been insisting on the original €45m, while Atletico are pushing to drop the price to €20m.

With talks at deadlock, Griezmann finds himself in limbo - though his first choice is to remain in Madrid.

Meanwhile, the Athletic says United are interested should Cristiano Ronaldo force through a January exit. Griezmann has long been a target for United's heirarchy.

The striker started yesterday's derby defeat against Real Madrid.
