Dembele is probably the easiest. Griezmann would be almost impossible considering that Atletico has a transfer ban. Would be terrible behavior to leave the club when they cant sign a replacement and destroy their chances for the upcoming season.

I've already highlighted previously why I think Griezmann might be possible.

Atletico knows he wants to leave and wont be there long so they may be tempted to actually encourage him to leave given that they can get maximum market value for him now if we activate his buyout clause because they might not get the maximum value next year when they agree to sell him.

That and they are already trying to get Diego Costa back this window and might be willing to make the sale and hold out for Costa to play in Jan.

Economically, it might be tempting for Atletico. Sporting-wise...well it's going to be a loss.

Diego Costa doesn't play the same position though. In fact, I think they are a pretty good fit together

Very good fit together.

But Atletico will acknowledge it will be short term. I'm sure Griezmann has an agreement with Atletico that he will be allowed to leave in the near future.

Just acknowledging that Atletico will get the maximum market value they possibly can for him without any complex negotiations or split payments if we trigger his release clause. If there is an agreement between Griezmann and Atletico to let him leave next year, they wont necessarily be guaranteed any of what we would are offering them right now.

100m upfront, no negotiations or payments spread out over a few years. I cannot see how it wouldn't tempt them.

Like you said, it makes sense financially but If I'd be in their position i'd absolutely do anything to convince him to stay this season, even if next year i'm getting less money for him. They can plan in advance as opposed to this year. Now they can't do anything with the money and will also lose the most important player. And for what? For 10-20 million more? It's not worth it imo.

They can't do anything if we pay the release clause and convince him but he'd almost match Neymar in cuntishness if he'd agree to join us.

Obviously I'm not instigating we should go behind Atletico's back, convince him and trigger the release clause. We should consult with Atletico and see if the financial incentives would appeal to them and be transparent with them.

Burning bridges with Atletico makes no sense, we have a very good relationship with them.

Can't trust the rumors but he would be an exciting signing and, potentially, future marketing gold-mine.

He is fast and scores goals and that's what I'd like to see in our new starting left winger.

Wow, slow down... Where is Paulinho? :p

Edit: It seems that they just bought Adama Diakhaby from Stade Rennais (Attacker both wings and central) for 5yr's. He passed his medicals today. Could be a B. Silva replacement but maybe a chance to lure Mbappe away now.
