5 clubs that would love to have Antoine Griezmann on their team

Undoubtedly one of the most exciting midfielders in Europe, Antoine Griezmann is hot property right now. Currently plying his trade with Atletico Madrid in Spain's La Liga, he has set their season alight with a glut of great goals.

In all, the 25-year-old forward has netted 29 goals across all competitions and has played a huge role in guiding Los Rojiblancos near the summit of the league table.

What's more, Griezmann has been instrumental in steering Atletico to the last four of the Champions League, something his six UCL goals clearly testify to.

He might be ruling the roost in the red and blue of the Spanish club but he's attracting the attentions of some of the continent's biggest institutions. So, let's examine the teams who would most like to have him on board.

After all, although allegiance means a lot, money talks.

Griezmann could form quite a formidable partnership with fellow France international Anthony Martial

Marcus Rashford has been a glimmer of hope in an otherwise dull season of disappointment for Louis van Gaal’s Manchester United fans and he has given them a handful of special moments to cherish with his outstanding return of seven goals from 12 games.

The Red Devils youth product is keeping their fans sane with some well-taken strikes, but despite his youthful exuberance the 13-time Premier League winners are sure to need a more experienced net-rattler to grace the Theatre of Dreams and get them among the silverware again next season.

With that, Griezmann would be the perfect addition and he could form quite a formidable partnership with fellow France international Anthony Martial.

From a more tribalistic point of view, it's easy to envisage the prolific Atleti goal-scorer in a United shirt and perhaps their fans are clutching at straws but Griezmann's brother is a fan of the club, so...you never know.
