Bayern's interest comes just hours after the French international striker himself on Twitter that this season is his last in Atletico, thus announcing his departure from Wanda Metropolitano a year after confirming that he was staying.

The widely known interest of Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain, among others,  is now joined by a Bayern Munich who would be willing to do everything in order to get his transfer. 

This would also be the second year in a row that Bayern Munich try and sign the Frenchman, who will again be the protagonist of the summer transfer market.

However, the club that has shown the most interest for Griezmann is still Barcelona, who would have offered the Frenchman a five-year contract until 2024, going from the 21 million euros he currently earns at Atleti to 17. A contract that, in order to become a reality, would have to be signed after Barça will pay its 120 million euro termination clause.
