Manchester United Transfer News: Antoine Griezmann Talks Reported, Fresh Rumours

Manchester United have reportedly sought the help of "a leading agent" in an attempt to seal a £60 million summer move for Atletico Madrid's Antoine Griezmann.

According to Phil Cadden in the Sun, United manager Jose Mourinho is desperate to sign the Frenchman, who he believes can "get the best out of summer signings Paul Pogba and Zlatan Ibrahimovic," and talks have opened over a potential transfer.

Cadden added that the signing of Griezmann, 25, would signal the end of Wayne Rooney's Old Trafford career, while the former Real Sociedad forward would be open to a move to United as his relationship with Atleti and their manager Diego Simeone has soured.
