Arsenal has asked about signing Joao Felix as they bid to bolster their squad in the second half of the season.
The Gunners have been one of the in-form clubs in Europe this term and want to win the league title as they have topped the standings so far.
They suffered a huge blow when Gabriel Jesus was injured in the World Cup and he now faces up to three months out of action.
The Brazilian is a key player for them and he will be missed, even though Eddie Nketiah is expected to step up and become the main attacker for now.
Arsenal could be busy and the Daily Mail reveals they have asked Atletico Madrid about the possibility of taking Felix on loan for the next six months.
It is a deal that could be done, considering the Spaniards have placed him on the market after he fell out with their manager.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Felix is among the exciting young attackers in Europe and will not be a bad player to add to our squad.
However, we must be willing to spend some good money to cover a loan fee and his wages to make a move happen. Speed will be very important.

The amount of money Athletico want for a 6 month loan deal and his wages make this a non starter, not only that, where would he fit in the team, and we’ve got enough decent players on the bench already. Will not happen in my opinion.
Never again must we be caught with our pants below our knees, better to have surplus to requirement than to have a thin squad.
This kid is pedigree, he was sold for more than the cost of Jack Girlish not very long ago, some will argue class is permanent, but we need bodies as experience taught us the road ahead will be filled with pitfalls.
The only problem is the cost of the deal, once that can be corrected, then do it.
They want how much for him?
