Manchester United are reportedly lining up a deal to sign Atletico Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann, according to reports.

Griezmann has been a long-term target for United but have slowed down the chase following his big money move to La Liga side Atletico Madrid in 2014.

But according to reports it has been suggested that United are preparing a summer bid, with Red Devil boss Louis van Gaal known to be a keen admirer of the player.

The 24-year-old would cost in the region of £32.5m to sign, but that price comes with being rated as one of the most exciting players in the world at the moment.

The France international has attracted attention from Bayern Munich and Chelsea, but United appear to be the front-runners to secure his services.

Louis van Gaal’s United side are currently third in the Barclays Premier League having accumulated 65 points, one point behind Arsenal in second.
