Griezmann refuses to rule out United move

Cape Town - Manchester United will have noticed recent statements by Atletico Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann in which he has toyed with the possibility of a transfer.

The French forward has been repeatedly linked with the Red Devils, who have made a habit of big-name transfers in recent years, and his latest comments will rekindle speculation.

"In June, I extended my contract," Griezmann is quoted as saying in his biography.

"I'm linked to the club until 2022.

"Although I might be missing out on titles, I have everything here to be happy but that does not mean to say I won't go one day.

"I haven't made that decision. It all depends on various factors. I have nothing against England except for the weather. Manchester United is a possibility.

"As much as I repeat that I am delighted at Atletico, I have a great coach and great team-mates, they regularly ask me about my future. I do not exclude anything."

No! I think the smart thing to do is start again with a younger skipper ...

I'd keep Siya captain for now, but look to have someone else for 2027.
