Barcelona Eyeing Double Transfer For Man Utd Targets
Spanish La Liga giants Barcelona are reportedly plotting summer transfers for two of the biggest players in world football.
This is according to widespread reports coming out of the media in Spain.
Barcelona are keen to sign both Antoine Griezmann and Neymar this summer.
French World Cup winner Griezmann plays his club football for Spanish La Liga club Atletico Madrid at the moment but the former Real Sociedad star has already told the club about his intention to leave this summer.
For Neymar, the Brazilian international joined French giants Paris Saint Germain (PSG) two years ago after leaving Barcelona and he has been linked with a return to the club.

Neymar became the most expensive player in the world after PSG activated the €220m (£198m) release clause in his then contract at Barcelona.
Both Griezmann and Neymar are long-term transfer targets at Premier League giants Manchester United.
The specific report from Spanish news outlet Mundo Deportivo claimed that Barcelona is confident on the transfers of both Neymar and Griezmann from PSG and Atletico Madrid respectively this summer.
It was also revealed that they will fund the transfers with funds from the sale of Philippe Coutinho who’s expected to leave Barcelona this summer after a largely disappointing 18-month spell.
