Although Manchester United have been the English club getting most linked to João Félix from Benfica, it seems there are some rivals interested in teenager as well.
As reported by the Portuguese press today, Liverpool and Manchester City also have plans to watch the youngster next Saturday.
The information is brought by Correio da Manhã today, as they have a story saying over 20 clubs are expected to scout the youngster in Benfica’s match against Porto.
João Félix has been impressing for a few months now, and now the Reds and the Cityzens want to see him in what should be the biggest game of the Eagles’ season.
So with the ‘clássico’ against the Dragons being decisive for the title race, the 19-year-old will have the first big proof of his career, with all eyes on him.
Earlier today, we’ve covered claims from Record which said Juventus and Manchester United are both ready to trigger João Félix’ €120m release clause. So Liverpool and Manchester City better know they will have to act quickly and spend big if they get convinced to sign the youngster in the summer.
