Manchester City reportedly tell Barcelona that they have no interest in signing Antoine Griezmann this summer.

Manchester City reportedly have no interest in signing Barcelona attacker Antoine Griezmann.

The Blaugrana are under pressure to offload some big earners in order to comply with La Liga salary caps and register their new arrivals, which has led to a host of speculation surrounding Griezmann's future.

City are still thought to be plotting a move for Tottenham Hotspur's Harry Kane, but a swoop for Griezmann has been mooted if they are priced out of a deal for the England captain.

However, the Manchester Evening News reports that Pep Guardiola's side are not intending to make a move for the Frenchman, and they have informed Barcelona of their stance.

Chelsea have been tipped to sign Griezmann on loan for the 2021-22 season, though, but any interested party would reportedly have to fork out 100% of his wages during his temporary stay.

The 30-year-old's existing deal with Barca is not due to expire until 2024, and he has scored 35 goals and set up 17 more in 99 appearances for the Catalan club since 2019.
