Barcelona Yet to Make Antoine Griezmann Approach, Says Atletico Madrid President

Atletico Madrid president Enrique Cerezo has said Barcelona have yet to make contact with the club over the possible signing of Antoine Griezmann.

The forward has confirmed the previous season was his last at the Wanda Metropolitano, just a year after he signed a new long-term contract with Atletico. Griezmann was pursued by Barcelona last summer before he decided to remain in Madrid.

It was reported by Michael Butler of the Guardian that Atletico were set to lose the Frenchman to the Blaugrana for £108 million in this window. However, Cerezo said there's not yet been discussions between the two clubs.
