Ever wondered what kind of lodgings the French national team will be rooming in during the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia?
Well, wonder no more as Les Blues superstar Antoine Griezmann has been so kind as to take us on a tour of his room at the Hilton Garden Inn in Moscow.

The caption, when translated, reads: ” Antoine Griezmann makes us visit his room. Even Kylian Mbappe can’t go inside.”
Interestingly, Griezmann is next door to Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba and not any of his strike partners–Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele.

It’s a pretty slick room, with a stunning mural of the player adorning the door. The 27-year-old seems pretty content with the size of the television set as he shows the cameraperson around with much gusto.
Speculation around Griezmann’s future has been rife, with Barcelona unabashedly courting him for the past year but United harbour hopes of bring the Atletico Madrid forward to Old Trafford before the season begins.

After bursting onto the scene for Real Sociedad, Griezmann made the switch to the Spanish capital, where he has transformed into one of the most exciting forwards in the modern game.
Still, there is a growing belief that the Frenchman has plateaued at the Wanda Metropolitano as the Rojiblancos will never truly be able to compete with Europe’s elite on a consistent basis due to financial constraints.
With the World Cup nearly here, Griezmann has the perfect chance to spark a bidding war as his exploits for Les Blues are unlikely to go unnoticed.
