Antoine Griezmann is prepared to stay with Atletico Madrid beyond the end of this season.

With Manchester United, Barcelona and Real Madrid all prepared to meet Griezmann's €100m buyout clause, the Frenchman is expected to leave in 2018.

However, Don Balon says Griezmann is willing to stay if Atletico keep their team together.

With Vitolo and Diego Costa due to 'arrive' in January after Atletico's transfer ban is concluded, Griezmann is also willing to stay if they agree to keep Jan Oblak off the market.

Oblak is being linked with PSG and Griezmann sees the keeper as crucial to Atletico's ambitions. Keeping hold of Oblak will convince Griezmann Atletico are serious about competing for titles and persuade him to stay at the Wanda Metropolitano.
