The clubs have agreed that Barca will pay his release clause of £107m
Different parts of the football club have been informed that the deal for Griezmann is definitely going ahead, it claimed.
The 28-year-old has been linked with Barcelona since he announced his intention to leave Atletico in May.
The clubs have agreed that Barca will pay his release clause of £107m (€120m).
His release clause dropped from £180m (€200m) to £107m at the start of July.

Griezmann had claimed that he would be announcing his next club in July, when he revealed that he would be leaving Atletico.
He has spent five years at the Vicente Calderon, and subsequently the Wanda Metropolitano stadium.
Barcelona’s plan to sign Griezmann shouldn’t have any impact on the planned deal for Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar, it’s been claimed, despite both players playing in similar positions.
Neymar has made it clear that he wants to rejoin Barcelona after leaving for PSG in 2017.
