Best pick for Barca was Draxler. Too bad PSG doesn't want to sell him.

Sign him ASAP, I can't stand watching Suarez decline

Almost impossible that he will come, same with Dybala, better to look at realistic targets.

He has a 100 million release clause. Surely he'd pick us over United if his intention is to win trophies (which he's stated many times)?

He could well get more money at United and be focal point of their attack.
Wouldnt be a straightforward choice of Barca dont think.

Not convinced of his release clause and the fact he would choose barça over united, going from Atletico to another La Liga side is unlikely for a player of that calibre.

Martial is ok but Rashfords technique and first touch are average.

His clause for Barça is apparently still 200M.
Where did you read that? Sounds like BS.

How can that be possible, the player can simply buy himself out then if that's the case. It's non-sensical.

Griezmann gave an interview this February and the reason why he ruled us out was MSN. I'm pretty much sure Griezmann would prefer Barça over United any day. It is not just about the chance of winning titles but also about the difference in lifestyle between these two cities and he already said that he has doubts about living in Britain. It is also an incentive to have the chance of playing with Messi. Every footballer knows that having Leo besides you makes everything easier for you + it is well known that Leo is a team player and welcomes other great players with open arms.
We can argue about signing a younger player because you can get more out of him longterm, but short- to midterm Griezmann will be the best choice for 100m if Valverde wants to continue with the current system. After all Messi has done for this club we owe him to buy Griezmann because he would be the perfect addition to our forward line.

Miguel Rico mentioned that a few weeks ago but now I've searched that article and it says his clause for Barça is still 200M until July 2018. Don't know why or if this is true but if United or another club will pay his clause before July then we can't do much. Unless he prefers to join us and is willing to wait until after WC.

Why? If he really has that clause in his contract then he accepted it.
