Manchester United told the price to sign Joao Felix

Manchester United have been told to increase their loan offer significantly in order to sign Atletico Madrid star Joao Felix.

The Portugal star has been identified as a top target for the Red Devils but they are yet to convince Atletico over a transfer.

United recently made a loan offer of around €4 million but the proposal was immediately rebuffed by Diego Simeone's side.

It is now reported by O Jogo that Atletico have no plans of losing Felix this month unless any club meets their €12m price tag for him.

United have been informed regarding the same. It is claimed that the club could turn their attention elsewhere to bolster their attack.

The Red Devils are looking at alternatives in the market and it has been recently reported that they could sign Vincent Aboubakar on loan.

The Cameroon international is expected to leave Al-Nassr this month and it is claimed that United have already made an offer for him.
