'Griezmann will make a decision ahead of the World Cup'

At a press conference, Deschamps spoke about Griezmann and said : ''It doesn't bother him. He already said that he would fix his situation before the World Cup, and he will do that. We may have talked about it and we may well again, but in the end, it is his decision.''

The Atleti striker, who has been heavily linked with a move to La Liga champions Barcelona, has joined up with the French squad at their Clairefontaine training base ahead of the World Cup in Russia.

'Les Bleus' have a busy upcoming fixture schedule, taking on Ireland at the Stade de France on 28th of May, Italy in Nice on 1st June and the United States in Lyon on 9th of June before competing in the World Cup group stages.

They will first face Australia on the 16th June (ranked 40th in the world), followed by Peru (11th) on the 21st June and they will finish up the group stages against Denmark (12th) on the 26th of June.
