Portuguese star Joao Félix could ask to leave Atlético Madrid in January with his situation with manager Diego Simeone described as untenable.
Felix has been relegated to a secondary role this season under Simeone, who prefers other attackers.
This has caused the alarms to start sounding according to Transfers.
The media reports that “the Portuguese soccer player is not willing to continue in this condition and has already asked to leave the Colchoneros next January.”
“He is aware that it is the only solution to recover his sports career. There are three possible destinations for him, all in the Premier League.”
If Cristiano Ronaldo really ends up leaving Manchester United in January, the club could undertake the signing of Joao Félix without any problem.
According to Transfers, United are a concrete solution for Felix as the English giants are in desperate need of new blood.
The only obstacle to the 22-year-old moving to Old Trafford is the fact that the Red Devils are not in the Champions League, something the player will likely demand, although Atleti themselves are in danger of being eliminated from the competition.
If United are interested in Felix, they will face competition from Chelsea and Arsenal.
Chelsea is seen as a credible threat due to their owners’ deep pockets. Todd Boehly needs a star to be the face of his new era at the London club, especially after missing out on Ronaldo in the summer.
Arsenal are seen as suitors due to their new style of play being seen as more suited to Felix compared to Simeone’s more defensive approach.
United must be attentive to the availability of Felix. He remains a special player with a lot of skill and is surely destined for greatness.
