Antoine Griezmann’s brother Theo is causing waves yet again by dropping another hint that his Atletico Madrid sibling could be joining Manchester United.
Rumours of the France international’s potential move to Old Trafford emerged as far back as September.
The Manchester Evening News reported that the striker was Jose Mourinho’s top transfer target for the 2017 summer transfer window.
It would be a huge capture for United, with Griezmann scoring 14 goals already in 27 appearances in all competitions this season.
The forward netted 22 times in La Liga in the 2015-16 campaign, and also found the back of the net on seven occasions in the Champions League.

He has impressed on the international stage as well, scoring six goals in seven appearances during the European Championships last summer.
Griezmann has openly admitted that he would like to one day play alongside his national teammate Paul Pogba, who returned to United from Juventus for a world-record £89m fee in the summer.
The forward’s younger brother Theo Griezmann is not exactly playing down talk of a potential transfer. In fact, he is fuelling the fire with his tweets.
Of course, the 20-year-old may just be a United fan, but after tweeting to Memphis Depay, who recently left the club, that the North-West outfit was better than Lyon, and now uploading an image of Old Trafford, supporters may be left wondering what it means.
