Antoine Griezmann open to Premier League move: Why not?

Atletico Madrid ace Antoine Griezmann won't rule out playing in England in the future.

Griezmann has been linked with Arsenal this month.

Speaking to The Guardian, he revealed that Manchester United and Real Madrid legend David Beckham had had a big impact on him: "I liked him a lot. He was my idol. That's why I wear a long-sleeved jersey and wear the No7."

As for the idea of a switch to the English top flight, Griezmann did not write it off. "Yes, why not?," he responded when asked about the notion of moving to the Premier League. 'If I am out of contract with Atletico I would ask myself that question."
