PSG president Al-Khelaifi unconvinced by Atletico Madrid star Griezmann

PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi is ready to pass on Atletico Madrid star Antoine Griezmann.

Griezmann signed a new deal with Atletico this month, which saw his buyout clause jump to €100 million.

PSG chiefs have put Griezmann forward as an alternative to Barcelona star Neymar - and paying his release clause would not be a problem.

However, El Mundo Deportivo says A-Khelaifi isn't convinced by the Frenchman's profile and doesn't believe he can match the marquee success of Neymar around the world.

Griezmann was also linked with Manchester United and Chelsea yesterday.
