"Aston Villa are very well positioned to take Joao Felix.

Miguel Ángel Gil Marín, CEO of Atlético Madrid, is already negotiating with #AVFC ."

I hope not because he’s been under whelming at WC.

[Toronto Villa]

I want this to be true for us but also because it will make Doghead heads pop off like that scene at the end of the Kingsman

[john e]

very excited obviously happening and no one will convince me otherwise

[brontebilly]

He was outstanding tonight anyway.

[Toronto Villa]

Is Felix a Mendes client? I know he’s working a bit more with us now

He's a highly-rated Portuguese footballer. I don't think they have agents other than him.

(yes, he is)

Incidentally, I reckon there's about as much chance of Joao Felix joining us as there is of Bellingham or Mbappe rocking up at Villa Park.

Sadly, I have to agree. I wanted him to join us the summer he left for Madrid and he was out of our league back then. Atletico are just using us to smoke out real buyers.

[Lastfootstamper]

I am not overly upset at us being used in such a manner. It means we're registering.

[VILLA MOLE]

I know he is quality but is he really what we need right now ?

One of the best young players in the world to take the place of Ings or Watkins?

Nah, hard pass from me.

Zero chance of signing him 😂

[Villafirst]

I assume he can sign now in principle but join in January? Hope this happens....

[PaulWinch again]

There’s not a bloody chance it will happen. Wish it would though.
