Atletico unfazed by Man Utd's Griezmann 'game' as further transfer talk is rubbished

Club president Enrique Cerezo is sure the France international forward will remain at the club long-term and play a key role against Real Madrid

Atletico Madrid remain confident that they can keep Antoine Griezmann, with Manchester United transfer links considered to be a “game”.

The France international forward spent much of the summer being heavily linked with a big-money move to Old Trafford, only to see an embargo in the Spanish capital bring an end to the rumours.

Griezmann eventually ended up committing to a new contract through to 2022 , although that has done little to curb the endless rounds of speculation regarding his future.
