Manchester United are reportedly interested in signing Joao Félix from Atlético Madrid.
Erik ten Hag’s team is currently looking for a replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo.
Following his explosive interview with Piers Morgan, United decided to terminate Ronaldo’s contract.
The team is currently missing a striker and is having a hard time scoring goals.
Felix is a name that has been mentioned before and is extremely attractive, especially to fans.
The Portuguese is one of the brightest young forwards in the game and has the ability to change a match all on his own.
His big-money move to Atlético Madrid hasn’t been the best, but it has shown glimpses of his world-class talent.
According to Duncan Castles, the Spanish giants are looking to offer him on loan to a Premier League club, to reduce their costs.

Arsenal are said to be interested in Felix as a replacement for the injured Gabriel Jesus.
Atlético has proposed a short-term loan, with a fee of eight million and salaries covered in full.
It remains to be seen if United concede to Atlético’s demands, in what could turn out to be a rather expensive deal for just six months.
Atlético have reportedly not included a purchase option in the contract.
United could look at other options such as Cody Gakpo, who would be an excellent choice considering his recent development.
