Atletico offer Joao Felix to Man City to reduce Alvarez's signing

Atletico have added Le Normand and Sorloth to their ranks this summer. Gallagher could be next and more moves at the Metropolitano are not ruled out this summer. But the most anticipated of all is undoubtedly that of Julian Alvarez.

The 'Daily Mail' claims that Atletico are looking for a formula to convince the Sky Blues to allow the Argentine to leave the Etihad Stadium. Los Rojiblancos, as an option, would have raised the possibility of Joao Felix's loan to the Etihad side.

Manchester City, before the Portuguese ended up on loan at Chelsea, were interested in the 'Menino de Oro', hence the Madrid club have offered their player on loan with an option to buy. 

The loan of Joao Felix would, of course, be joined by a good offer for Julian Alvarez, although 'Daily Mail' does not give figures in this regard. What the British newspaper does make clear is that City have valued their player at 98 million: they intend to get 87 million fixed plus 11 million in variables.

The Portuguese scored 10 goals in 44 games and provided six assists in his last season at Barca. The Argentinian, meanwhile, scored 19 goals for Manchester City in 54 games played, as well as providing 13 assists.
