Although the difference in the desired amount between the clubs is large, he did not give up and expressed his intention to recruit.
British media ‘Daily Mail’ said on the 5th (Korean time), “Manchester United has submitted a bid to rent Joao Felix (23) for the remainder of the season for 3.5 million pounds (about 5.2 billion won).”
Manchester United are struggling in attack this season. No team in the top 9 of the league has scored fewer goals than Manchester United (27 points). There is a 13-goal gap between Arsenal and Manchester City, who record the most goals (40).
Striker reinforcement is urgently needed. Cristiano Ronaldo, who was responsible for the most goals in the team last season, left the team after failing to gain trust under coach Eric ten Hag.
While Cody Gakpo, one of the key targets, chose to go to Liverpool, Felix is strongly connected with Manchester United.
Felix is a striker who is active in Atletico Madrid, and has performed well this season in the league and Qatar World Cup. A teammate of Ronaldo’s Portugal national team, he contributed to the team’s advancement to the quarterfinals by participating in four World Cup matches, recording one goal and two assists.안전놀이터
Manchester United, who had already missed each shot, moved quickly to recruit Felix. It is known that he contacted his agent, Jorge Mendes, and held several talks.
However, he was caught up in the huge transfer fee. According to reports, Atlénico Madrid demanded more than double the amount Manchester United originally wanted to pay.
Afterwards, it seemed that Man Utd eventually gave up on Felix scout, but he still did not pay attention. Recently, Spain’s ‘Lerevo’ claimed that “Man United have been tracking Felix’s situation and have agreed to pay his wages until the end of the season, and have handed over a £3.5 million bid to the club.”
Even so, transfer negotiations are not smooth. Manchester United’s offer is still far short of the 11 million pounds (approximately 16.6 billion won) desired by Atlenico Madrid.
