Manchester United fans had more to cherish on the day they triumphed to their first major trophy under Jose Mourinho. The fans were sent to frenzy not just with the trophy but also because of the series of tweets made by Antoine Griezmann’s brother Theo Griezmann as the match progressed.
Atletico Madrid central forward Antoine Greizmann is one of the major targets for Red Devils this summer and they have been constantly linked with a record move for the talented Frenchman who is at the peak of his form over the past three years making him one of the best players around the world.
The Red Devils are ready to activate his massive £85million clause to bring him to Old Trafford this summer and the chances were given a massive boost when his brother Theo, who is also an agent of Antoine, has spoke of his love towards Manchester United.
He made a series of tweets as the EFL Cup went on and he has lived the match through his twitter account over the course of 90 minutes.

However, despite making the tweets, some of the fans have criticized him for seeking publicity. But Theo has proved everyone wrong as he has posted a pic of him in Manchester United jersey when he was 14 and claimed to be a true Red Devil.

The signing of Antoine Griezmann would be a huge statement by the club as he is considered the third best player in the world after Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. He will also be another huge prospect for long term as he is still only 25.
