Barcelona don't need to sign a Suarez replacement as they have Griezmann, says Poyet

Gus Poyet does not think that Barcelona need to panic buy and sign a replacement for Luis Suarez in the January transfer window, with Antoine Griezmann capable of stepping in for the injured Uruguayan striker.

Suarez will be out injured for four months leaving the Catalan giants short in attack, with Inter striker Lautaro Martinez, who is the club's primary target, only a realistic option for the summer.

And former Real Zaragoza midfielder Poyet thinks that Griezmann, who has yet to hit top form at Camp Nou since his move from Atletico Madrid, is an excellent option to replace Suarez in attack.
