João Félix’s future is expected to be a seriously hot topic this month.
Manchester United and Arsenal are both keen on signing the forward.
Atlético Madrid have made it clear that they are open to letting him leave, with the 23-year-old having fallen out with Diego Simeone.
The Red Devils have even made an opening offer, which for now has fallen short of Atléti’s demands.
But Jorge Mendes has started work on trying to find a solution with the Spanish club to get him out this month.

Now, both Manchester United and Arsenal will have to wait and see whether Madrid change their mind.
