THE BALL – Atlético Madrid grants the wish of João Félix (Spain)

João Félix is ​​determined to leave Atlético Madrid in January, a wish the club will be willing to fulfill. This is the main novelty of the process, advanced by the AS newspaper, which adds to the data that has already appeared in England (see attached news): the Spanish club only admits one loan, until the end of the season, with no option to buy. Arsenal and Manchester United are being touted as possible destinations for the Portuguese international.

Atlético Madrid do not intend to rush the 23-year-old striker’s departure and expect a future sale of around €100m, closer to the sums they shelled out when they bought him from Benfica in 2019 for €129m. .
