MADRID: Atletico Madrid have splashed £113m on teenage sensation Joao Felix from Benfica which makes him the fourth most expensive transfer in history.

The 19-year-old only trails Neymar (199.80m, Barcelona-PSG), Philippe Coutinho (£130.50m, Liverpool-Barcelona) and Kylian Mbappe (£121.50m, Monaco-PSG) in the list of the biggest ever deals.

Eden Hazard’s move to Real Madrid is reportedly set to rise to £150m in time once all bonus payments kick in but the flat fee was just shy of £100m.

Felix made his senior debut in August and scored 15 goals last season while he also made his international debut for Portugal during the Nations League semi-final victory over Switzerland in June.
