Bayern Munich join Chelsea in race for Atletico Madrid star Griezmann

German giants Bayern Munich are now in the hunt for Atletico Madrid's Antoine Griezmann.

Gazzetta dello Sport suggests that the Bavarian behemoth is showing significant interest in the French attacker and could make a move in the summer transfer window.

Chelsea are being heavily linked with the 24-year old who has a release clause of £43million inserted in his contract.

Diego Simeone is reportedly desperate to keep hold of Griezmann and has implored Atleti to up the ante on his buyout fee to closer to £100m.
