90min are reporting that Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester City all have been made aware of the situation of Antoine Griezmann.

What’s the story?

Barcelona want to get Griezmann off their books, and Liverpool, Chelsea and City all have been made aware that he is available for a low fee.

The Spanish giants reportedly paid £107 million for the 30-year-old forward in 2019.

But now Barcelona want to offload the former Atletico Madrid forward and get his wages off their books for much less.

The France international’s agent and sister, Maud, has spoken to at least two Premier League clubs this month.

Barcelona are now in talks with Atletico over a swap deal involving Griezmann – who won the 2018 World Cup with France – and fellow midfielder Saul Niguez.

Antoine Griezmann to Liverpool?

Griezmann is a very good forward who won the UEFA Europa League and reached the Champions League final with Atletico.

The forward has not had the best of times at Barcelona, but two relatively disappointing seasons do not mean that he is a bad player.

Griezmann is still only 30, and for a relatively low transfer fee, he would be a smart signing for Liverpool.

The Frenchman is quick, versatile, scores goals and links up well with his teammates.

The France international scored 13 goals and gave seven assists for Barcelona in La Liga last season.

The forward scored 15 goals and gave nine assists in the league for Atletico in 2018-19.
