Barcelona manager Ernesto Valverde has talked down speculation his side are close to signing Atletico Madrid striker Antoine Griezmann after Luis Suarez appeared to suggest a deal is already over the line.
Valverde referred to comments made by Suarez in the buildup to Sunday's El Clasico against Real Madrid, complimenting Atleti's frontman but dismissing the notion a move is complete just yet, per Football Espana:
"I don't know if Suarez knows something I don't. I'm proud that we've signed players of [Griezmann's] quality. He's a player who gives a lot.
