Sky Sports' Spanish football expert Guillem Balague insists Antoine Griezmann will not be leaving Atletico Madrid this summer.

The Frenchman has been in prolific form this season scoring 30 goals in 50 appearances helping Atleti to second in La Liga, level on points with leaders Barcelona.

Diego Simeone's men head to Germany with a 1-0 lead in their Champions League semi-final second leg against Bayern Munich on Tuesday.

Griezmann has been linked with a host of Premier League clubs, including Manchester United, over a possible move in the summer but Balague does not believe he will leave the Spanish capital for at least another 12 months.

"The plan is he stays for one more year and Griezmann is not in a rush to leave," Balague told the La Liga Weekly Podcast.

"He has not said no to the offers he has had and he has had offers from at least five Premier League teams. He's going to think about it. The first intention is to stay on and we will see what happens there."
