Manchester United are reportedly looking at the prospect of signing Chelsea loanee Joao Felix in the summer.
Felix was on the Red Devils’ radar at the beginning of the year, but he ended up signing for the Blues on loan from Atletico.
The Blues plan to negotiate a permanent deal in the summer, but it won’t be easy with Atletico eyeing around €100 million.
It is unclear whether the Blues will meet the price tag, but Sport claim that United are ready to capitalise on any breakdown in talks.
The Red Devils have been long-term admirers of the Portuguese. They were first keen on signing him from former club Benfica.
The club continue to monitor his situation closely. Erik ten Hag had given the green light for a winter move before Chelsea won the race.
Felix has recently admitted that he would like to join the Blues on a long-term basis, having settled brilliantly in the past few weeks.
