The French striker has reportedly turned down Jose Mourinho and Manchester United in favor of remaining with Atletico Madrid, where the 26-year-old has spent his time since 2014.
The Independent has also reported that Griezmann personally placed a phone call to Mourinho on Thursday to notify the Portuguese boss that he wouldn’t be making the journey to Old Trafford ahead of the 2017/18 season.
Griezmann has scored 83 goals for Atletico in his three seasons with the side from the Spanish capital, amassing at least 25 goals per season during that time.
