Arsenal has been named as one of the clubs best-placed to sign Atletico Madrid attacker Joao Felix as he gets set to leave in January.
The Portuguese star has fallen out with his current manager and his club is now prepared to cash in on him so that he can be replaced with someone that will suit their style of play.
Several names have been linked with a move for him, as he could make a January exit even on a loan-to-buy agreement.
A report on AS via Sport Witness reveals Arsenal is one of the clubs leading the race for his signature, but it insists they are not alone.
Manchester United also considers him a striker who can replace Cristiano Ronaldo, and they are desperate to get a deal over the line.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Eddie Nketiah showed in the win against West Ham that he can be our main attacker, but that should not stop us from continuing to bolster our squad.
Felix is a terrific attacker who will make us better if we add him to our squad, and we must take advantage of that to make this transfer happen as soon as possible.
But it must only be done if Mikel Arteta has watched him and believes he will suit his system.

No thanks.
Let’s get Mudryk done please.
Not a cat chance that AFC either would or even wish to stump up the huge money he would cost. Not remotely on our radar and for that very reason I say!
As I am certain those running JA are very well aware.
The battle between true and honestly meant JA opinion and the ever present need for clicks has only one winner. Guess which one it is!
Maybe Edfie is keeping away this once promising lad from Arsenal, but he’s of pedigree and we won’t hear the last of him.
Would love him here ,obviously did not fit AM and Simones set up .
Peach of a player ..and one I would love for us to sign .
A class striker but mudryk first
While I would really love to have him here, I feel this is all a media transfer makeup like the Tielemans rumour which is obviously media speculation. Moreover, the greatest stumbling block I would say is the fee which ATM would demand. Only Manchester United would agree to pay €100m for him. But if Mudryk doesn’t come due to Shakhtar demanding ridiculous money, then we should better invest the money on Felix as he’s currently a better and more established and experienced player than Mudryk, also capable of filling in for more positions than said Mudryk. Midfielder please
