Manchester United have reportedly tabled their first offer for Atletico Madrid misfit Joao Felix as Erik ten Hag attempts to bolster his forward line in January.
The Red Devils are in dire need of a new striker following the exit of Cristiano Ronaldo before Christmas - the Portuguese going on to seal a record-breaking move to Saudi outfit Al-Nassr. One of the candidates put forward was Ronaldo’s compatriot Felix with the former Benfica striker having struggled in Madrid over recent seasons.
Various reports have suggested that the young forward’s relationship with current boss Diego Simeone is beyond repair and the Spanish side are now open to letting their record signing leave the Wanda Metropolitano. It appears that an exit has edged ever closer with Man Utd having lodged a bid for the 23-year-old, whilst face-to-face talks have also been held regarding a move.
