United Increases Chase for Morata as Griezmann's deal shutdown
Antoine Griezmann Agrees contract extension
Atletico Madrid's Antoine Griezmann has extended his contract by a year, with his new deal expiring in 2022.
The 26-year-old France forward had been heavily linked with Manchester United, and said last month there was a "6/10" chance he could move to Old Trafford this summer.
But he agreed to stay at Atletico after the club had a transfer ban upheld.
"The first thing I want to do is apologise to people who misunderstood my statements," Griezmann said.
Atletico cannot sign anyone until January after failing in an appeal against a ban imposed in July 2016 for breaching Fifa rules over the signing of youth players.
