Manchester United interested in Atletico Madrid star as PSG make contact

Paris Saint-Germain have been in touch with Joao Felix’s entourage as the French champions look to sign the striker next summer but will face competition from other European clubs.

According to Diario AS, Manchester United and Bayern Munich are the other clubs that are aware of Félix’s situation at Atlético, but it is PSG that has advanced in the competition by approaching the Portuguese star first.

Felix reportedly wants to leave Atletico Madrid in January, with PSG said to be willing to take the 22-year-old on a 6-month loan with a mandatory purchase option in the summer of 2023, AS reports.

The Portuguese star has a contract with Atlético until 2026, but he is not happy at the La Liga club, as he has fallen through the ranks of Diego Simeone.

If Felix fancy moving elsewhere, Manchester United could be an option as the Premier League club will be short of strikers once Cristiano Ronaldo leaves.

The 22-year-old is also versatile, something Erik ten Hag will appreciate and the Dutch manager would be excited to get the best out of this talented youngster.

However, there is still a long way to go in Joao Felix’s career as Bayern Munich and his needs as a striker cannot be ruled out either.
