After a lackluster one-season loan at FC Barcelona, Joao Félix returned to Atlético Madrid this summer. However, the Portuguese striker, under contract until June 2029, could well be heading to England.
And that’s the case to say it. Indeed, according to recent information from Mundo Deportivo, the former Benfica prodigy is in Aston Villa’s good books. The leaders of the Birmingham club see him as an option to replace Moussa Diaby, who left for Al-Ittihad.
Aston Villa ready to go all out?
This Friday, the daily Sport reports that the Viseu native is not insensitive to the interest of the Premier League club. According to the Spanish media, Joao Félix, who had a short six-month experience at Chelsea in 2023, is open to the idea of returning to England.
Meanwhile, while Barça do not seem inclined to meet the demands of the Colchoneros, who are demanding 60 million euros to release the 24-year-old player, the Villains, for their part, would be more willing to meet the expectations of their Madrid counterparts.
