DBasia.news –  Antoine Griezmann is still linked to Manchester United and Barcelona. However, according to reports from the Mirror, the Atletico Madrid striker is more inclined to Barcelona because there is Lionel Messi.

The Mirror reported that Manchester United had the courage to spend up to 125 million euros to redeem Antoine Griezmann’s release clause. However, problems arise as the player is not interested in defending the Red Devils.

Antoine Griezmann reportedly prefers to leave to Barcelona. Griezmann based the decision as he wanted to play with Lionel Messi.

In fact, Barcelona is also no less serious in its efforts to recruit Antoine Griezmann. As El Barca has begun negotiations since the 2017-2018 season.

However, at that time, Griezmann chose to survive. The former Real Sociedad midfielder wants to help Atletico Madrid, who was punished by a ban on registering new players from UEFA.

After one year, Griezmann is reported to have started to get bored playing at Atletico Madrid. Despite being the most important player for Los Rojiblancos, Griezmann feels it will be challenging to win the trophy.

Not surprisingly, at the end of the competition, Griezmann decided to leave. The 2018 World Cup champion wanted to experience new experiences.

The news of Antoine Griezmann’s visit to Barcelona was stated directly by Atletico Madrid’s Gil Marin. Marin acknowledged the agreement had been going on for several months. “We have known since March that Griezmann will go to Barcelona,” Gil Marin said.
