The 23-year-old is looking to leave Atletico Madrid this summer
After a taste of football in England on loan at Chelsea, it seems Joao Felix may return sooner than anticipated.
Reports say Felix has been recommended to join Aston Villa by his representative Jorge Mendes, and Unai Emery will be a key factor if Felix is to be playing in B6 next season.
It’s likely it will be a loan with either an option or obligation to buy, as Atletico will not be willing to sell for less than 75 million euros.
Aston Villa appear to be very ambitious this window, and after the disappointment of missing out on Marco Asensio, Unai Emery will be keen to avoid missing out on another target to another superclub.
