Benfica 'receive bids from Man City and Manchester United' for Joao Felix and more rumours

Benfica have received bids from four clubs for Joao Felix including Manchester City and Manchester United, reports in Portugal say.

Record claim Benfica have four offers for Felix, 19, who is one of Europe's hottest properties this summer - and at least one meets their £105m asking price for the winger.

Benfica have made it clear they will not sell Felix for below that price as that is his release clause, but the report (via SportWitness ) claims they are also tempted by one offer that falls below that mark as it would allow Felix to remain at the club for another season.

The report does not name the other clubs to have bid for Felix, but speculate that Real Madrid could have offered the lower amount as it corresponds with a report in Marca this week claiming they will offer €80m with a season-long loan as part of the deal.

Meanwhile, City winger Jack Harrison is a target for Leeds United, reports claim.

Harrison spent the last season on loan at Elland Road as Leeds lost in the Championship play-offs, making 42 appearances.

Now, Whites boss Marcelo Bielsa has reportedly given the go-ahead to bring Harrison back to the club next season.

Football Insider say Bielsa spoke about Harrison as a key part of his plans for next season during talks with the club that saw him extend his contract into next season.

But any move would not be permanent, as Leeds cannot afford City's asking price.
