5 realistic destinations for Antoine Griezmann in summer transfer window of 2017

#2 Chelsea

^ Pretty much their expressions when they find out Antoine Griezmann might sign for Chelsea

Just imagine a front-three of Diego Costa, Eden Hazard and Antoine Griezmann. That’s a perfect combination of talent, aggression and goal-scoring prowess. I’m sure of Antonio Conte read that he’d drool nonchalantly for a few minutes irrespective of how awkward it could become.

Griezmann’s biggest strength is his ability to time his runs into the box. We usually say that for a midfielder but this guy has the knack of arriving at the right time every time. And he has the confidence and the technique to put those chances away with ease. How much would you pay for that?

While it means Chelsea will have to let go of a few players – like Willian or Cesc Fabregas – so be it. They’re incredible players, no doubt, but even Conte will know that there are only a few chances in your lifetime you get to sign one of the three finalists of the FIFA Ballon d’Or for a decent-ish fee.
