In a recent interview conducted by The United Stand with renowned football journalist Fabrizio Romano on November 20th, it has been revealed that Antoine Griezmann is not planning to leave Atletico Madrid in the upcoming January transfer window. Contrary to recent rumors, the Frenchman expressed his deep attachment to the club, declaring his love for Atletico Madrid.

Griezmann's commitment to the Spanish side is underscored by his outstanding form this season, where he has emerged as one of the most in-form players globally. Having netted an impressive 12 goals and provided one assist, the 32-year-old forward has played a pivotal role in Atletico's success.

Recent speculations hinted at a potential move to Manchester United, with reports suggesting the English club's interest in activating Griezmann's £25 million release clause. Allegedly, contact had been initiated with the player's representatives to explore the feasibility of a January transfer. However, it appears that Griezmann is content with his current situation in Madrid and has no intentions of seeking a move elsewhere in the near future.

This isn't the first time Griezmann's name has been linked with Manchester United. In 2017, there were reports of a deal being close to fruition, with the player himself stating on a game show that a move to Manchester United had a 60 percent chance of happening. Despite the buzz, the deal never materialized, and Griezmann remained with Atletico Madrid before eventually joining Barcelona for a two-season stint in 2019.

His time at Barcelona seemingly imparted valuable lessons to the Frenchman, emphasizing the importance of not rushing into decisions. Despite a challenging period at Barcelona, Griezmann rediscovered his form upon returning to Atletico Madrid, reestablishing himself as a key player for the team.

As the January transfer window approaches, it appears that Griezmann's focus remains firmly on Atletico Madrid. While the football world is no stranger to unexpected twists, for now, it seems Antoine Griezmann is set to stay put at Atletico Madrid, turning down the allure of a potential move to Manchester United.
