Griezmann setback for Barcelona?

According to a recent report from Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona have experienced a setback in their attempt to sign Antoine Griezmann from Atletico Madrid. It’s no secret that the Frenchman is going to be leaving the Spanish club in the summer transfer window, and it’s no secret that Barca have long since wanted to bring him to the Nou Camp. He has been tipped to make the jump over for a long time now, but apparently, the talks have stalled and the La Liga champions are looking towards alternative targets as a result of this. There’s been no confirmation of this report one way or the other, and the setback in question hasn’t been noted, but it certainly seems like Barca would’ve made some kind of progress by now if they’re serious about signing Antoine.

Either way, it feels like we’ve got a big few weeks ahead of us in regards to this story.
