Manchester United emissaries have been in Spain to discuss a potential deal for Atletico Madrid's 2021/22 Player of the Season Joao Felix, as per Marca.
The Red Devils are looking to reinforce their squad following a calamitous start to the season.
Erik ten Hag has overseen two defeats in his first two competitive fixtures for United, including an embarrassing 4-0 thrashing at Brentford on August 13.
Ten Hag's side are short of players in the attacking department. There is an added uncertainty over the future of Cristiano Ronaldo at the club.
Atletico duo Alvaro Morata and Matheus Cunha have been of interest but United seem to have turned their attention to star man Joao Felix.
Intermediaries for the Premier League club were in Madrid on Tuesday, August 16 night.
They are reported to have discussed a potential transfer with the young Portuguese attacker's entourage.
United have informed Atletico Madrid of their intention to sign the forward but the La Liga side do not want to part with their star forward.
Felix joined Atletico back in 2019 for £114.48 million and has been one of Diego Simeone's top players at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium.
He made 35 appearances last season, scoring 10 goals and contributing six assists whilst also being named Atletico's Player of the Year.
The young Portuguese ace came up and scored against Manchester United in the round of 16 of the Champions League last season.
Atletico Madrid are unlikely to sell Felix to Manchester United
Felix, the 2019 Golden Boy winner, is a top talent and will not come cheaply, especially with the Mattress Makers not keen on selling him. He has four years left on his deal with Simeone's side and is starting to live up to his astronomical price-tag.
The Portuguese failed to replicate the inspired form that preceded him at Benfica which saw him make the move to the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium. He is now coming into his own and this past season has been one of Felix's best in Spain so far.
The 22-year-old has made 112 appearances during his time with Atletico Madrid, scoring 29 goals and creating 18 assists.
Manchester United will have to offer a lucrative deal to land the Portuguese forward this summer.

I hope Felix reject or atm should put 170€ for him
the bond the atletico Madrid staff and fans have with there players are that of a family which is why all the players are on board willing to stay ( signing contracts to 2027 0-0) and fight as underdogs behind Simeone. so with that said and the strong start atleti ✨ have had throughout their preseason and first laliga game looking the capable to claim the league trophy and reach final in UCL. no one's leaving 💯. atlease not this season anyway ......

It's like 7000 news outlets are monitoring the Manchester United transfer markets. The club is in shambles, the United board should chase all these news outlets out, and focus on their transfer. Who leaks the information, that person does not mean well to the club. Once other clubs hear, other players hear, they will begin to convince your target, and the club will double their money. See go to Brazil's local league, the money you will use to sign one player here, you will use it and sign 5 quality players, tell them what to do, coach them to play in the premier league, and you see these players make names for themselves.

Bow I believe that the only way Man United will sign very good players is when the Glazers leave our beloved club or else we are going nowhere
