Manchester United scout David Friio has revealed that the Premier League champions are interested in signing Real Sociedad attacker Antoine Griezmann.
The Frenchman is widely regarded as one of the best youngsters in European football, with his 15 league goals for Sociedad this season enhancing the appeal.
A number of clubs are believed to be in the running and now Friio has confirmed that United are monitoring proceedings.
"Griezmann would clearly bring something," he told L'Equipe.
"His versatility and technique, in a tournament where the gaps are reduced, are real assets. You can't score 15 goals in a great League without having real qualities."
Griezmann made his senior debut for France against Netherlands last week.
