According to Mundo Deportivo, Portuguese striker Joao
Felix
Hoping to avoid a long hangover from last summer's transfer market, he has asked his agent Jorge
Mendes (name)
Accelerating his future. Felix, 24, has now returned to his parent club Atletico Madrid from his loan spell at Barcelona. He has made it clear that he wants Mendes to help him leave as soon as possible
Atletico Madrid (soccer team)
Felix is aiming to finalize his destination before Atletico Madrid begin pre-season training on July 27th, either through a transfer or being loaned out again. However, current indications are that Barcelona do not have him as a prime target for reinforcements and a return to his old bosses Benfica is unlikely as Benfica's offer of €20 million for 50% ownership of Felix is well below the €50-60 million Atletico are asking for.
Apart from Benfica, Turkey's Fenerbahce and Premier League's Aston Villa have also expressed interest in Felix. In addition, the Saudi Arabian club is also considered as one of the possible options for Felix.
