Benfica 'open talks to re-sign Joao Felix from Atletico Madrid for £12.7m' - less than a TENTH of what they sold him for five years ago - but there is one major problem standing in their way

Daily Mail  

Benfica have reportedly opened talks with Atletico Madrid about a shock deal to take back Joao Felix five years after they sold him - for a slither of the price. Five seasons, two loan spells, and one huge fall-out with Atletico boss Diego Simeone later, and Benfica want him back for a relatively piddling £12.7m. Benfica are reportedly trying to re-sign Joao Felix from Atletico Madrid for £12.7million The Portuguese giants sold Felix to Atletico in 2019 for £114m, the fourth-highest fee ever Felix has struggled to leave a positive impression at Atletico and has been sent on loan twice The prime issue for Benfica is his £6.7m per year salary, which would make him their third-highest earner after Angel Di Maria and Juan Bernat, according to Capology. Manager Diego Simeone has not been impressed with his attitude and even banished him to train with the academy last summer The 24-year-old had slightly better form at Barca this season but blew hot and cold ' Flick considers that they are high-quality players and when he coached Bayern he already tried to incorporate Joao Felix.
