Manchester United are reportedly in talks to sign World Cup winner Antoine Griezmann as they look to add more experience to their frontline. The Red Devils have only scored 13 goals in 12 Premier League games this season, and their current attack of Hojlund, Rashford, Martial, Antony, Sancho and Garnacho have just one Premier League goal between them.
Hojlund has been impressive in the Champions League, scoring five times, but the pressure on him has been too much in the Premier League. As a result, Erik ten Hag is looking to lighten the load on the Dane and Griezmann could be the perfect addition.
The 32-year-old Frenchman has been in fine form this season, scoring eight goals for Atletico Madrid. He was close to joining United in 2017, and even wears the no.7 shirt due to his admiration for David Beckham.
The Nacional has reported that United has already held talks with Griezmann's representatives regarding a move to Old Trafford. Griezmann is said to be open to leaving Spain, where he's spent his whole career, and United would reportedly triple his salary to around £240,000-a-week.
Bruno Fernandes has also dismissed the interest from Saudi Arabia, insisting he's happy at Manchester United. With Griezmann potentially joining the club, they could be on the verge of a major transformation in the attack.
