Five reasons why Antoine Griezmann will definitely join Manchester United

#1: Number 7 and £280,000-a-week.

Grizou will retain his Atletico kit number at United

Money and fame. That's what every footballer craves for. And, you wouldn't miss an opportunity where you are just a signature away from getting both.

This is the chief reason why Griezmann will join United sooner or later. The Frenchman has idolized United's legendary former number 7, David Beckham. United have reportedly kept a £100 million and number 7 aside for Grizou.

The Red Devils are also allegedly willing to pay the Frenchman staggering wages of £280,000-a-week.

A chance to fill in your idol's boots, and getting paid that much to do it, is something every footballer dreams of.

If Grizou does seize this one-in-a-million opportunity, he will see a gigantic rise in his fan following. United have one of the biggest fan-followings in the world, and make no mistake, the 26-year old will benefit handsomely from it.

Wayne Rooney's departure to Everton has certainly eased the pressure of United's balance sheets regarding wage bills. Hence, the Red Devils could ensure that Griezmann's treasure chests are filled to the brim.

All in all, Antoine Griezmann and Manchester United are a match made in heaven!
