Benfica confirm €126m Atletico Madrid bid for Joao Felix

Image
The Portuguese club have revealed that the Spanish outfit have placed a massive bid on the young striker, though it has yet to be accepted.  Benfica   have confirmed that a €126 million (£113m/$143m) bid has been made for star forward Joao Felix by   Atletico Madrid .    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.

When you have the ball, you have to try to play, according to the qualities of your team. The last time I checked, we came to France with just five defenders, so what happen to the nine forwarders we've got. We've got pacy forwards in Oshoala and Ordega but I don't see us utilising that to our advantage. We sit in too deep and I th
