Aston Villa has reportedly identified Atletico Madrid forward Joao Felix as their primary summer transfer target.
Speculation has arisen in recent weeks that the Portuguese player is highly sought after by head coach Unai Emery.
Aston Villa has already spent and offered £50 million for Everton midfielder Amadou Onana.
However, the financial situation of the London club is expected to improve with the £60 million gained from Moussa Diaby’s transfer to the Saudi club Al-Ittihad.
Atletico is believed to lower Felix’s price, whom they bought for £113 million five years ago.
