Manchester United have jumped into the battle for wantaway Atletico Madrid attacker Antoine Griezmann.

The Sun says United are prepared to smash their transfer record by offering Atletico Madrid £95million for the striker.

Barcelona appeared close to landing the France World Cup star - but their failure to make an official move has opened the door to United.

And club chiefs could now swoop as they prepare for Belgian hitman Romelu Lukaku and current £89m signing Paul Pogba to leave.

Griezmann, 28, gave the Old Trafford outfit hope when he claimed that his future may now be away from Spain.

Speaking after France's 4-0 Euro 2020 qualifying win in Andorra on Tuesday, he said: "I don't know if I will stay in La Liga.

"I know where I want to go. I am also keen to get this over with as quickly as possible."
