Newcastle have entered the race to sign Atlético Madrid striker Joao Félix, but the Portuguese star wants to move to Manchester United.
Félix was named Atlético de Madrid player of the year in the 2021/2022 season. At 23, Félix is ​​now a regular at both his club and his country and his performances have drawn the attention of clubs across Europe.
Now, according to Football Transfers, Newcastle have entered the race to sign Felix, but the 23-year-old would prefer a move to Manchester United.
With Alexander Isak injured and Felix able to play between the front three, it makes sense to see Eddie Howe targeting a player of Felix’s caliber.

However, the report claims that the lack of Champions League football could be a factor in Felix deciding not to move to Newcastle.
It’s a similar story for Manchester United, who are also not in the Champions League, but the size and stature of the club always attract players.
If Manchester United can improve their league position during the January transfer window, Felix could be tempted to move to Old Trafford.
