GRIEZMANN TO MAN UTD IN JANUARY?

Antoine Griezmann was apparently so eager to join Manchester United in the summer that he could now seal a switch to January, according to the Manchester Evening News .

United were strongly linked with the France international although failed to push through a deal, with Griezmann deciding to stay put after Atletico Madrid were hit with a transfer ban.

But the move could still happen in January, with Jose Mourinho keen to bring in a marquee signing to take the vacant No.7 shirt, with Gareth Bale also an option in summer 2018.
