Antoine Griezmann talks up his friendship with Man Utd star

Antoine Griezmann has discussed his friendship with Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba and how the pair have become close during international duty with France.

The pair were both involved in helping France reach the final of Euro 2016 on home soil in the summer before they ended up being beaten by Portugal in the final.

Pogba has since completed a big-money transfer to Manchester United and netted his first goal for the Red Devils in Saturday's 4-1 win over Leicester City.

Griezmann has triggered reports that he could leave Atletico Madrid at the end of the season after separating from his representatives Grupo Santos.

The Atletico Madrid star has been touted as a possible transfer target for Manchester United in the windows to come.

And the France international has now spoken out about his relationship with new Manchester United signing Pogba.

Griezmann is quoted as saying by Onda Cero: "Pogba and I were brought closer by the French press. Criticism after the Romania game made us friends.

He added: "Pogba with the ball is a genius."

Manchester United are currently preparing for their Europa League clash against Ukrainian side Zorya at Old Trafford on Thursday night.
