Villa interested in Felix
Latest from Sky Sports News’ Lyall Thomas:
Aston Villa have an interest in Atletico Madrid forward Joao Felix.
Villa are still in the market for an attacking midfielder and manager Unai Emery is also a huge admirer of Tottenham’s Giovani Lo Celso.
Felix, 24, is another similar profile that Emery is long thought to have been impressed by. Benfica and Barcelona are also interested in him.
He is on a big salary at Atletico although he is thought to have agreed a pay decrease to force through a loan move to Barcelona last season.
He spent the second half of the previous season on loan at Chelsea.
Villa are on the cusp of selling forward Moussa Diaby to Saudi Arabian side Al Ittihad for £50m.
They have also signed two new wingers in Samuel Iling-Junior and Jaden Philogene, while Morgan Rogers only joined from Middlesbrough in January.
