Barcelona defender Samuel Umtiti says Antoine Griezmann would be a "fantastic" signing.

At this morning's media conference to confirm his new five-year contract, Umtiti was asked about Barca's pursuit of the Atletico Madrid attacker.

He said of his France teammate: "I talk a lot with Griezmann, but not on this subject. We speak of many things, of how the food is, of what we do. It's something that I do not care about.

"He is a fantastic player, he can help all the teams in the world and if he wants to come it will be fantastic.

"(But) I do not want to talk about Griezmann."

Asked also about Sevilla defender Clement Lenglet, Umtiti added: "I watch all the matches, football is my life. I like him a lot, he's a great player. I like him but you should talk to the directors."
