Chelsea are reportedly considering a move for highly-rated attacker, Antoine Griezmann, according to sources close to the club. The French international has been a standout performer for Atletico Madrid in recent seasons, and his contract is set to expire at the end of the season.

Blues boss Mauricio Pochettino is keen to strengthen his attacking options ahead of next season, and Griezmann has been identified as a potential target. Talks are expected to begin in the coming weeks, subject to Atletico Madrid's willingness to negotiate.

Further details regarding the potential fee and personal terms are yet to be confirmed, but initial estimates suggest a transfer fee in the region of £70 million.
