Diego Simeone has managed to assemble a pretty formidable squad at Atletico Madrid, with 'Los Rojiblancos' winning a La Liga title, a Copa Del Rey, a Europa League and reaching two Champions League finals during his five years as the club's manager. But one of his star players would still like to see another couple of additions made to Atleti's first team.

Antoine Griezmann, who has been regularly linked with a move away from Atleti, has shared with Goal which two players he would bring to the Vicente Calderon, given the chance.

"I'd sign Alexandre Lacazette or Pogba. I love how Alexandre plays and he's a really good guy. The same for Paul - he's a great player and a good mate. I hope to play with one of the two one day."

Griezmann is rumoured to be Jose Mourinho's number one target to potentially replace Wayne Rooney next season and is in the running for this year's Ballon d'Or after another impressive year for Atleti and France, with whom he won the Golden Boot at Euro 2016, this Summer.
