Manchester United have reportedly made an offer of £3.5million to sign Atletico Madrid forward Joao Felix on a loan deal for the remainder of the season.
Felix, 23, has started just six of Atleti’s 15 La Liga matches this campaign and has fallen out of favour entirely under boss Diego Simeone despite finding the net four times in his limited game time. Manchester United have been linked with a move for the former Benfica ace but a host of clubs are monitoring his situation.
The Portugal international has instructed his agent, Jorge Mendes, to find him a new club in January and Atletico Madrid’s CEO, Miguel Angel Gil Marin, has admitted that the club’s record signing could now be sold next month.
