Atletico Madrid are reportedly open to selling Joao Felix in January.
Arsenal’s target Joao Felix is set to move on from Atletico Madrid after the 2022 World Cup.
Felix will go on holiday until the end of 2022, before returning to Madrid at the end of December. He was part of Portugal’s side in World Cup 2022.
Atletico are reportedly open to selling the 22-year-old in January with a potential €100m asking price issued to potential buyers.
Felix claimed in an interview with Diario AS, during the tournament, that he is open to leaving, with a decision expected in the coming weeks.
Premier League giants Arsenal have been linked with a move for Felix as the Gunners look to mount a Premier League title challenge in 2023.
Speaking to Caught Offside, in his exclusive column, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano claimed a deal is far from complete, but Arsenal would be a good option for the 23-year-old.
“There are no favourites for Felix at this stage. His agent is speaking to many clubs, but nothing is advanced yet, with Atletico or the player.
“I think Felix would be a fantastic signing for Arsenal, as for any other club in the world, but he has to play.
“He needs to be a regular starter in every game, otherwise it makes no sense.”
