Arsenal are reportedly prepared to compete with Chelsea for the signature of Atletico Madrid forward, Joao Felix.
As per Spanish outlet Fichajes, Joao Felix is keen on leaving Atletico Madrid in the January transfer window. And Arsenal have now joined Chelsea in the race to secure the services of the the 22-year-old Portuguese forward.
Felix has had a torrid time at Atletico Madrid since completing a club-record move to the Wanda Metropolitano. The player seems frustrated with the situation at the Spanish club and believes that he has no significant role or importance in the side.
According to the report, Felix has asked his agent Jorge Mendes to find him a new club in January. Both Chelsea and Arsenal are keen on signing the Portuguese international, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up.
It is no secret Chelsea are in desperate need of attacking reinforcements, and Felix could be a quality long-term acquisition. The Blues invested in Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in the summer transfer window. But the former Arsenal captain is 33 years old and is regressing with time.
Felix would be a quality long-term signing, and Chelsea have the finances to pull off the transfer as well. Meanwhile, Arsenal are on the rise under Mikel Arteta, and they are currently on top of the Premier League table.
The Gunners could look to improve their squad in the January transfer window, and Felix has been tipped as a potential target. The Portuguese international would get regular game time at the North London club, and Arsenal could help him fulfil his world-class potential.
Summer signing Gabriel Jesus has had a considerable impact since joining Arsenal, and Felix could transform the Arsenal attack as well. The move has not worked out for Atletico Madrid either, and the Spanish club could look to cash in on the 22-year-old forward if a suitable offer arrives in January.
It will be interesting to see if the likes of Chelsea and Arsenal can convince Los Rojiblancos to part with the young Portuguese international in the coming weeks. Other clubs like Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United also remain in the hunt.
