Atletico Madrid, PSG prepare mega-offer for Griemann
According to Fichajes.net, Paris Saint-Germain are preparing a €100 million bid for Atletico Madrid striker Antoine Grizemann.
The French champions want to make a statement of intent by trying to snatch the 25-year-old away from the clutches of his mentor Diego Simeone. Grizemann’s future in the Spanish capital has looked uncertain for a while now; having dispensed with his agent to conduct all business transactions himself, Euro 2016’s top scorer may be searching for pastures new next season and Paris is just one of many possible destinations.
Reports from England in recent weeks have suggested that Old Trafford could be his final destination with Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho keen to bring the player to the “Theatre of Dreams”. Barcelona have also been mentioned and we could see some frantic transfer activity next summer to try and secure one of the hottest strikers in Europe despite his recent comments that he was keen to stay with Simeone; the coach who has turned him into a superstar.
