A versatile forward capable of playing in the middle or on the flanks, Griezmann would be one of the blockbuster signings of the summer if anyone is able to prise him from Atletico. Guardiola has been critical of the wastefulness from his attackers lately, so despite having a top-heavy squad, Pep may look at adding another attacker and 22-goal Griezmann is a world class player.
Would you like to see Griezmann at Manchester City and would it be in place of or in addition to Kun Agüero? Let us know in the comments.
