Atoine Griezmann signing for Liverpool would be great

That's according to ESPN FC pundit and former Chelsea midfielder Craig Burley, who think the French forward can add more strength to the Reds attack.
Griezmann recently opened up he will be leaving Atletico Madrid this summer and both Barcelona and Liverpool are among the list of Heavyweights wanting his service.
The forward delivered a farewell message via Atlético’s official social media channels: "I wanted to tell you that I’ve made the decision to leave to experience new things and have new challenges. It’s been very hard for me to take this path, but I feel that it’s what I need.
"It's been an incredible five years; Thank you very much for everything, I take you in the heart."
Barcelona are favourite ahead of Liverpool to sign the 28-year-old who almost moved to Cam Nou last year but Burley thinks that Liverpool should fuel their attempt for his signature this summer.
"I actually think that Liverpool would be a great place for Griezmann to go this summer," Burley told ESPN FC.
"Liverpool are very much a team on the up at the moment and he could aid Roberto Firmino who also likes to drop deep.
"Liverpool are a huge club who are fighting for league titles with Manchester City and have reached the last two Champions League finals."
