Joo Félix, who spent half a year working for Chelsea last season, may soon depart Atlético Madrid, where he has been building up cases since preseason work began.
Despite the Londoners’ underwhelming performance in 2022–2023, the 23-year-old Portuguese international maintained a positive reputation in the Premier League, where three individuals are reportedly interested in saving him from the “colchoneros.”
Manchester United, which had previously attempted to borrow him from Atlético in January, is in the lead. The forward ultimately decided to fly to London to support Chelsea, but this did not diminish the ‘red devils’ interest in the forward as they seek to increase their alternatives in the attacking area.
Due to Newcastle’s financial resources as well as the fact that the team will participate in the Champions League next season, a point that Joo Félix would appreciate when making a decision about the future, United joining the Magpies is a real possibility.
Despite the ‘villains’ ambitious sporting project for the upcoming season, which was confirmed with the arrival of Pau Torres, for whom he paid 33 million euros to Villarreal, and Belgian international Youri Tielemans, from Leicester, the possibility of moving to Aston Villa appears to be more difficult to materialise even for that reason.
