Mcw brings you an exclusive, in-depth analysis of the most intriguing rumors making waves in football circles right now.
Portuguese Prodigy Sparks Bidding War
Benfica’s 19-year-old sensation João Félix has become one of Europe‘s most sought-after talents after Liverpool’s substantial £61m bid was rejected. Portuguese outlet Correio da Manhã reports the Eagles are holding out for a fee closer to his €120m release clause.
