Griezmann was also asked about joining PSG next season, to which he replied: “I am feeling great at Atletico. PSG? They’re an interesting club, but I don’t like Ligue 1. I prefer LaLiga and the Premier League, but my goal is not to leave Atletico immediately.”
As far as the rumours are concerned, the Premier League clubs will be alerted regarding the player’s situation, and big clubs like Manchester United and Manchester City will definitely try to buy this fantastic player.
