Antoine Griezmann plays down links with move to Manchester United as Erik ten Hag seeks to reinforce his attack... but Frenchman is on a 'mission' to become Atletico Madrid 'legend'

Antoine Griezmann has played down any speculation linking him with a move to Manchester United, as he admits he wants to become an Atletico Madrid 'legend'.

The Frenchman has enjoyed a resurgence to form in Diego Simeone's new look-Atletico team.

Griezmann has eight goals in 12 games so far this season as his side sits fourth in La Liga behind classic rivals Barcelona and Real Madrid and surprise leaders Girona.

He was initially linked with a move to United when Jose Mourinho was in the dugout, but chose to join Spanish rivals Barcelona instead.
