Chelsea reckon their mammoth bid will end United’s interest in their target.
Following the speculation linking the 25-year-old with a move to the Premier League, with Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal rumoured to be potential suitors, the forward confirmed his plans to leave his agent.
The player has always spoken of his commitment to Atletico, but hinted recently he could look to move on if the club ever parted company with much-sought after coach Diego Simeone.
Having decided not to renew his contract with agency Grupo Santos, Atletico Madrid’s Antoine Griezmann will instead represent himself.
“I will now operate without an agent but my advice will continue to come from my father and from my mentor Eric Olhats”, he told French newspaper L’Equipe. “I was sceptical at the time, but Eric convinced us to let him go to San Sebastian”. I can learn a lot from him.
