Barcelona board members have warned Antoine Griezmann not to mess them about.

The Atletico Madrid star was expected to join Barca in the coming days - with the Double winners prepared to meet the €100m buyout option in his contract.

However, Griezmann is now rethinking his plans and there are even claims he told his Atletico teammates he would be staying.

And speaking to El Mundo Deportivo, a Barca board source warned: "If he comes, it's only because he wants to and if he does not want to come, it's better that he stays at Atlético Madrid.

"Barça is not interested in any player who is not convinced that he wants to play here."
