On November 11th, Cadena Ser explained Manchester United could make an offer to sign João Félix in the winter market.
The Red Devils have received a boost in their transfer pursuit after Atlético Madrid CEO Miguel Ángel Gil Marín confirmed the forward has asked to leave the club in January.
“He is the biggest bet the club has made. I think he has the highest level in the world, but for reasons that are not worth going into now, such as the minutes played, that the relationship between the coach and him is not good, his motivation… It is reasonable to think that he will come out. Although I would love him to continue, but this is not the player’s idea,” he told TVE.
AS relay that and explain Los Rojiblancos are ‘willing to sell’ the ex-Benfica star for €100m. Jorge Mendes, the 23-year-old’s agent, is already at work to look for clubs who can sign his client. Manchester United are named as one of his suitors.
These three sides could be joined by other clubs, but as of now, Manchester United, Bayern and PSG are the ‘applicants’ to take the player away from the Metropolitano.
Félix registered two assists for Portugal in their 6-1 crushing victory over Switzerland on Tuesday.
After the tie, Gol had a chat with him and the topic of his future at Atlético was discussed.
“My agent doesn’t want to tell me anything about what is going to happen,” Félix said.
