Barcelona reactivate option to sign Joao Felix (reliability: 4 stars)

Barcelona consider signing Joao Felix, reports Diario Sport's Lluis Miguelsanz.

The option of landing the Portuguese is gaining strength following Ousmane Dembele's reported decision to join Paris Saint-Germain.

Dembele's departure reportedly will generate a lot in Barca's wage budget, so it would be possible to sign Felix.

The agreement will be possible if the player pushes for the move.

Earlier, Felix publicly expressed his desire to join Blaugrana. Atletico Madrid were said to be frustrated with the player's statement – now they want him out this summer.

Last season, the forward scored 4 goals in 20 appearances for Chelsea on loan. Overall, the attacker has netted 34 goals and provided 18 assists in 131 appearances for Atletico Madrid.
