BARCELONA (Reuters) - Barcelona are set to make another attempt to sign Antoine Griezmann from Atletico Madrid after last year's long saga led to the France international rejecting the Catalan club, according to multiple reports in the Spanish media on Tuesday.

Griezmann famously turned down an offer to join Barcelona last season, detailing his internal struggles about whether to make the move in a landmark documentary called The Decision, which was produced by a company owned by Barca's Gerard Pique.

Catalan newspaper Sport said on their front cover that Barca have set their sights on Griezmann again and plan to fund paying his release clause of 120 million euros by selling Brazilian Philippe Coutinho, who cost them a club record 165 million. The Griezmann saga caused great embarrassment to Barca but after the humiliating 4-0 defeat to Liverpool which sent them out of the Champions League, the club are planning to shake up their ageing squad ahead of next season.
