REVEALED: Pogba calming Griezmann concerns as Man Utd look to trigger £85m clause

Manchester United are planning to trigger Antoine Griezmann's buyout clause this summer.

The Telegraph is reporting that Griezmann remains Jose Mourinho's priority target and the club will activate his £85million release clause at the end of the season.

United star Paul Pogba has been reassuring his France teammate about the weather in England after the Atletico Madrid star recently spoke of loving the Spanish weather and lifestyle, and the Red Devils are hoping that influence helps turn the head of the in-demand striker.

While Mourinho is also looking at Everton's Romelu Lukaku and AS Monaco starlet Kylian Mbappe, it is understood that Griezmann is still the one he wants and he is eager to tie him down this summer after a long-standing interest in the 26-year-old.
