Manchester United have been handed a boost to their hopes of signing long-term target Joao Felix - with Atletico Madrid reportedly deciding to cash-in on the forward.
The Red Devils have long been linked with a move for the former Benfica starlet, but his current employers Atleti have been forthright in their intentions to keep him at the Wanda Metropolitano. Meanwhile, the Spanish side were also aiming to recoup as much of the £113million fee that they spent on his signature.
However, Diego Simeone ’s side have seemingly changed their mind on his future with reports suggesting that Atleti are now happy to sell Felix. As per The Times, the Spanish side will be willing to listen to offers for the Portuguese in January, with the Red Devils sitting at the front of the queue.
