Atlético receives another offer for Joao Félix m44o

The future of Joao Félix remains uncertain. On Wednesday, reports from Portugal indicate that Benfica has resumed talks with Atlético de Madrid to try and 'repatriate' the talented forward. The Aston Villa alternative seems to have lost momentum, while FC Barcelona stays in a discreet second place.

Portuguese newspaper 'Record' highlights on its front page that Benfica remains adamant about Joao Félix. The Lisbon club has reached out to Atlético de Madrid again with the aim of sealing a deal that reportedly includes a permanent transfer. This proposal may give Benfica an edge over other options that only consider loans.

After training alone upon returning from vacation, Joao Félix has now integrated with the rest of Atlético's squad under the guidance of Diego Simeone. However, his lack of harmony with the coach and some teammates is evident, heightening the urgency to find a solution.

Atlético de Madrid is also seeking a resolution that benefits both parties: reducing the club's wage bill and obtaining a financial return from the transfer, while Félix needs stability to continue his football career. The Premier League option with Aston Villa under Unai Emery appears to be fading, with Benfica emerging as the most solid alternative.

Meanwhile, FC Barcelona has stayed in the background in recent days, focused on other operations like those involving Nico Williams and Dani Olmo. Although Barça's interest in Joao Félix is genuine, no progress has been made in negotiations, leaving Atlético and the player in a situation that could become complicated with the start of the Madrid team's Asia tour on August 4th.

In summary, Benfica has reignited its interest in Joao Félix, and negotiations with Atlético de Madrid are underway. Meanwhile, the young forward's future hangs in the balance, with all parties involved seeking a resolution before the situation worsens further.
