Atletico Madrid are prepared to break the bank to make Benfica superstar Joao Felix the fourth-most-expensive player ever after an official bid of €126 million.
The 19-year-old teenager will do battle in the Spanish capital with former rival and centre-back Eder Militao, who agreed a summer move from FC Porto for Real Madrid in a €45 million deal in March.
Meanwhile, Sporting CP sensation Bruno Fernandes is tipped for a €70 million move this summer, with Manchester United heavily linked.
It has never been so costly to lure Portuguese League talents away from their clubs.
