• Atlético forward: ‘I should know more in the next two weeks’ • Griezmann could cost United £85m

Antoine Griezmann has said there is a six out of 10 chance of him joining Manchester United this summer. The Atlético Madrid forward has been consistently linked with a move to Old Trafford in recent months and it now seems there could be some substance to speculation about an £85m move.

The 26-year-old made the admission as a guest on the French TV programme Quotidien. When asked about the plausibility of a move to United, Griezmann agreed it was “possible”. When pressed further and asked the probability on a scale of one to 10, Griezmann said: “Six.” He was then asked if he understood what he was saying, and replied: “Yes.”

It may also not be long before a decision is made on the France international’s future. “I should know more in the next two weeks,” he said.

Reports have claimed Griezmann, who scored 26 goals for Atlético last season, could cost United up to £85m. But he went a step further on Tuesday when speaking to L’Equipe.

“Today, if I have to move, it will not be a problem for me,” said Griezmann. “It may be England, which is in fashion, Germany, China or the United States, I’m ready to go. We finished third in La Liga, it was the objective of the club, but we, the players, want more. Winning titles is what I will look for this summer when deciding on my future.”
