Antoine Griezmann says he wants to play club football with his France team-mate Paul Pogba, but only when the time is right.

Atletico Madrid striker Antoine Griezmann says he would like to play alongside France team-mate Paul Pogba at club level in the future.

The 25-year-old former Real Sociedad forward and the Manchester United midfielder have posted a number of photographs together on social media recently as a sign of their friendship.

Griezmann shared a photograph of himself and his compatriot Pogba on Twitter on Tuesday in which they were sat on the back of a golf buggy, with the caption: "End of the day, we go back to the Castle."

The pair are currently on international duty together ahead of Friday's World Cup Qualifier against Sweden at Stade de France.

Griezmann is a player in demand following his goalscoring exploits in Spanish football and at Euro 2016, and the presence of Pogba at Old Trafford may prove pivotal in a move to the Premier League for the Atleti man.

"I always ask Paul Pogba about Manchester United," Griezmann told Sky in Germany. "I think they are a huge club with a really good infrastructure.

"I ask Paul about some of the players, and if they're really that good, or if Jose Mourinho is really that good.
