Minders for Atletico Madrid ace Antoine Griezmann warn Man Utd

Atletico Madrid ace Antoine Griezmann will only consider a move to Manchester United if they qualify for the Champions League.

United boss Jose Mourinho has made the Atletico Madrid forward Griezmann his top target in the £300m summer revamp he believes is required to make the Old Trafford giants title contenders.

But the message coming from Madrid is that the Frenchman will only talk once United's European fate is decided, says the Mirror.

United have failed to qualify for the Champions League in two of the three seasons since Sir Alex Ferguson retired.

Mourinho spent £157m last year – including a world-record £89m just for Paul Pogba – and money will be no object this summer.
