Announced in the sights of Manchester United, Antoine Griezmann would have a clear idea of his future.
In sparkling form since the start of the season, Antoine Griezmann has caught the eye of Manchester United, who would have made him their priority for the winter transfer window, according to the Catalan press. It must be said that the player’s release clause – estimated at 25 million euros – is not enough to scare the Red Devils, who would even be ready to offer the Frenchman an annual salary of 21 million euros, or three times that that he receives at Atlético Madrid, to try to convince him to cross the Channel.
But according to information disclosed this Tuesday on X (formerly Twitter) by Fabrizio Romano, the residents of Old Trafford have not ” no chance “ to attract the 2018 world champion, whether this winter or next summer. Indeed, “Grizi” is only focused on his season with Atlético Madrid, where he is still under contract until June 2026.
🚨 Understand there’s nothing into the recent reports about Antoine Griezmann and Manchester United.
Griezmann already rejected Saudi huge bid in June as he only wants Atlético Madrid. No chance to move now.

Griezmann refused a Saudi golden bridge
The transalpine journalist adds that last June Antoine Griezmann declined a “huge offer” from Saudi Arabia. Which confirms that the Mâconnais does not see himself anywhere else, for the moment, than at Atlético. And once its story with the Colchoneros will be finished, he has never hidden his desire to join MLS. “I always said my goal was to end up there (in the United States). I want to be competitive there. But first I want to continue making history and winning titles at Atlético,” he declared at the end of last August.
