REVEALED: Felix 'has offers from Arsenal and Man Utd' - he won't play for Cholo again

Joao Felix is refusing to return to Atletico Madrid for next season.

The attacker, who spent the second-half of last season on-loan with Chelsea, doesn't want to work with Atletico coach Diego Simeone.

That's according to Okdiario's chief pundit Eduardo Inda, who said on El Chiringuito: "The one who was the second or third most expensive player in Spanish football does not want to return to Atlético.

"At Chelsea they have told him to go back the way he came, but the boy has said that he does not want to return to Madrid while there is Simeone. He considers that he stopped his career.

"El Cholo says he is a player who needs more mature and must have more ambition, self-love and work more. He has offers, one from Arsenal and (Manchester) United. He has made it clear that he does not want to return to Madrid under any circumstances. Let them give him anywhere, but he doesn't want to work with Cholo (Simeone)."
