Mendes thinks Villa is suitable for Felix, and some people in the industry prefer Arsenal.

The Athletic UK ace reporter David Ornstein updated the special during the World Cup.
Miguel Angel Jill Marin, chief executive of Atletico Madrid, rarely speaks publicly, so his comments last week were “reasonable to think that he (Jose Felix) might leave”, which was interpreted by some to mean that the 23-year-old would leave in January.
This explanation is accurate and several top clubs are interested in Felix. Some Premiership teams even think the Portuguese striker may be out on loan, but that means expensive loan fees plus full salary.
However, some people think that a permanent transfer is more realistic for a player who joined Atletico Madrid from Benfica for 126 million euros in 2019 and is under contract until 2026.
Aston Villa is an option for Felix’s agent Mendes. He has a good relationship with Aston Villa’s boss because he completed the deal in which Emery was appointed head coach.
However, some senior staff in the signing department think Felix may be more suitable for Arsenal because his style is suitable and they may need to strengthen the front line after Gabriel Jesus underwent knee surgery.
