According to reports Antoine Griezmann has emerged as Chelsea’s ideal candidate to add firepower to the Blues.
Antonio Conte still needs more reinforcements in attack , with Michy Batshuayi seemingly not in the Italians plans, and with Eden Hazard in form again, it has been hard for Michy to earn a spot.
Now Griezmann has emerged as Chelsea’s ideal candidate to come in, with the France international establishing himself as one of the deadliest prolific goalscorers in Europe in recent seasons.
The 25-year-old 62 goals in 113 games for Atletico, and his form for France at Euro 2016 has seen him talked up as a potential Ballon d’Or contender this year.
Griezmann has a release clause of £88m at the Vicente Calderon, and the Daily Telegraph claim Chelsea would be willing to pay that club-record fee to bring him to Stamford Bridge in the near future.
