Manchester United reportedly line up a summer bid for Benfica attacker Joao Felix, who could cost in the region of £100m.

Manchester United are reportedly lining up a summer bid for Benfica attacker Joao Felix.

Felix has been in impressive form for Benfica during the 2018-19 campaign, finding the back of the net on nine occasions in 23 appearances, in addition to contributing five assists.

Liverpool reportedly failed with a £61m bid for Felix during the January transfer window, while United are believed to have scouted the Portugal Under-21 international in recent weeks.

Felix recently revealed that he is already thinking about leaving Benfica and hinted at a move to Juventus to play alongside his "idol" Cristiano Ronaldo.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid and Barcelona have also reportedly recently joined the race, in addition to Wolverhampton Wanderers due to the presence of super-agent Jorge Mendes.

However, according to The Sun, United will make a strong play for the attacker at the end of the season despite the fact that Benfica are said to value him in the region of £100m.

Felix only recently signed a contract extension with Benfica and is now tied to the Portuguese giants until the end of the 2022-23 campaign.
