Atletico Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann sent Manchester United and Arsenal fans into meltdown after posting a photo of himself and Mesut Ozil on Twitter on Wednesday.

The Frenchman was a late substitute in his side’s 2-2 draw with Germany in Cologne.

Griezmann came up against Arsenal playmaker Mesut Ozil, who set-up Timo Werner with a sumptuous assist during his side’s draw.

The pair have both been linked with a move to Manchester United in recent weeks and Griezmann’s tweet after the match sent United fans wild.

The French forward posted a snap of him embracing Ozil alongside a number of cryptic emojis.

Though it’s not entirely clear what Griezmann meant by the tweet, United fans were certainly jumping to conclusions…

Ozil then increased speculation by replying to Griezmann’s tweet with a series of his own emojis.

Ozil is out of contract at the end of the season and negotiations with Arsenal over a new deal have ground to a halt.

The 29-year-old is free to sign a pre-contract agreement with overseas clubs in January but he’d like to reunite with Jose Mourinho at Old Trafford next summer.
