Aston Villa are in talks with Atletico Madrid for Joao Felix.
After last season's six month loan with Chelsea, Felix could be on his way back to the Premier League this summer.
TMW says Villa have opened negotiations with Atletico for Felix on the full approval of manager Unai Emery.
Villa are seeking an initial loan arrangement for the striker.
Chelsea paid 11m for Felix's spell and Atletico will accept a discount from Villa for the full 12 months next season.
