Antoine Griezmann to Man United: Fernando Torres urges him not to repeat Liverpool mistake
FERNANDO TORRES has urged Antoine Griezmann to ignore interest from Manchester United and stay at Atletico Madrid.
The best and worst of France star Antoine Griezmann
Griezmann has been strongly linked with a move to Manchester United in the summer.
Express Sport understands the 26-year-old Frenchman is Jose Mourinho’s top summer target and he is prepared to meet his £86million release clause.
But Torres, who was the same age as Griezmann when he moved to Anfield, feels he should learn from his mistake as he believes the club weren’t building for the future like they are at Atletico.
"We were not building a team to win. That was the reality, the situation changed very much in six months."
Griezmann helped himself to the 24th strike of the campaign when Atletico beat Leicester 1-0 in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie last night.
