#4 Griezmann already signed his Barcelona contract in March

Is Griezmann a Barcelona player already?

The drama over Antoine Griezmann refuses to end. Spanish Radio Station Cadena SER reveals a sensational news that could end the Griezmann to United saga. According to El Larguero, the Frenchman has already reached an agreement in March of this year to join the Catalans in the summer. There's even documented evidence to support their claim, which suggests that the Frenchman has been negotiating with the La Liga Champions since November of last year.

This could be a huge blow to Manchester United, who were hoping to bring Griezmann to Old Trafford this summer. It was rumoured that the Frenchman was not a priority for Barcelona and that had put United in pole position for his signature. Such contrasting claims have added much fuel to the transfer speculations and one can expect to hear more about the Frenchman in the next few days.

However, if Griezmann had signed the contract in March, Atletico could actually file a case against the Catalans for negotiating with their player while he was still contracted to the club.
