Manchester United target Antoine Griezmann set to commit his future to Atletico Madrid

Antoine Griezmann ends Manchester United's hopes by penning a new contract, reports the Sun.

Griezmann was reportedly in contact with Manchester United after Atletico Madrid saw their transfer ban upheld.

However, according to reports, Griezmann got in contact with the Old Trafford club to say he wouldn’t be joining after Atletico Madrid saw their transfer ban upheld.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport confirmed news of the ban, which prevents Diego Simeone’s men from being able to register new players until January.

Atletico were eyeing moves for Alexandre Lacazette and Diego Costa to replace the 26-year-old next season, but with the club now unable to sign a replacement, Griezmann appears to have reaffirmed his commitment to the side.
