Report: Real Madrid to enter race for Antoine Griezmann

Real Madrid are reportedly planning a last-ditch attempt to snap up Antoine Griezmann from bitter rivals Atletico Madrid.

The France international revealed last month that he intends to leave the Wanda Metropolitano this summer following five years at the club.

Barcelona, who came close to signing Griezmann 12 months ago, were widely considered to be at the front of the queue to land him.

Reports in Spain suggest that the 28-year-old is also a target for Real Madrid, however, with boss Zinedine Zidane and president Florentino Perez seeing him as a value-for-money option.

Griezmann, who has a €125 (£111m) release clause inserted into his contract, has also recently attracted rumoured interest from Manchester United.
