OFFICIAL: Atletico Madrid submit €126m offer for Joao Felix

Atletco Madrid have officially submitted a €126m offer for Benfica wonderkid Joao Felix. The Spanish side are looking to rebuild after a number of big-name players, including Antoine Griezmann, confirmed they would be leaving the club this summer, and 19-year-old Felix, who has been compared to Cristiano Ronaldo, is clearly part of the club's plan moving forward. He had been tipped to join either Manchester City or Real Madrid in a huge mega-money move, but it's Los Blancos' neighbourhood rivals ​Atletico who have surprisingly jumped to the head of the queue in recent weeks. Félix enjoyed a breakthrough 2018/19 campaign, scoring 20 goals and assisting 11 in 37 appearances.
