Real Madrid reveal stunning plan to land former Chelsea and Man Utd target
REAL MADRID are keen to sign Antoine Griezmann, according to reports.
Posted Wednesday, October 14, 2015 by Express.co.uk
The Atletico Madrid striker has become one of the most sought-after players in world football.
Chelsea tracked the 24-year-old during the summer and even considered making a £28million bid.
Manchester United were also hot on his heels and were prepared to trigger his £46.1m release clause on deadline day.
However, Griezmann signed a new contract keeping him at the Vicente Calderon until 2020 and his buyout clause is believed to have been upped to deter potential suitors.
But according to talkSPORT, Atletico's arch-rivals Real are lining up a move for the January transfer window.
The report quotes sources in Spain which suggest Los Blancos boss wants Griezmann and Benzema to spearhead his attack.
