Barcelona have apparently given up on summer signing Antoine Griezmann and are putting him up for sale after less than a year at the club.
Griezmann joined Barcelona from Atletico Madrid after his £108million (120 million euros) release clause was triggered, however, Griezmann’s adaptation to the club has not gone as planned, as he has scored just 14 times in 37 matches so far this season.
Citing Diario Sport, Barcelona is now willing to listen to offers of more than £92m (100 million euros) for the Frenchman in order to reinvest in other star players as they are bent on overhauling the squad but will need to sell first-team players if plans to re-sign Paris Saint-Germain star Neymar and Inter Milan forward Lautaro Martinez are to come to fruition.
Only Lionel Messi’s weekly £500,000 per-week wage is higher than Griezmann’s at the club, with the Frenchman earning a weekly salary of £294,000. The report claims that Griezmann would possibly spike the interest of Europe’s other elite clubs, including PSG, Manchester United and Chelsea.
