14 league goals in 65 appearances since joining Athletico in 2019. Gundo has a better strike rate than him.

I'd take him on a 6 month loan and see how he gets on. See where Bernie's heads at and if he still wants to go then negotiate a 'Buy It Now' price in the summer.
Felix would basically be a Torres replacement and we can sit back and see if deals can be done for Haaland or Vlahovic at the end of the season.

As I said in the other topic, this is an article (with very little meat to it, at that) by Manu Sainz from AS, a Madridista, right before the Madrid derby on the weekend.According to AS, Felix’s entourage want to find a way out for the player in January

In a very defensive team that doesn't play to his strengths.

Luis Suarez doesn't play the same position or style. He has also spent over a decade playing for Uruguay who play in in a similarly direct and defensive fashion.
Veteran lead striker vs young second striker/attacking midfielder.

So surely that backs up my statement "Not the answer to our striker requirement" ??Luis Suarez doesn't play the same position or style. He has also spent over a decade playing for Uruguay who play in in a similarly direct and defensive fashion.

He might be a decent attacking midfielder but we are well stocked with those and just cannot see him as a viable alternative to the likes of Kane or Haaland who could score 30+ goals a season.

That’s if the only solution to our "striker requirement" is to hire a conventional striker.
He is more of a second striker like Totti, Cassano or Jovetic than an attacking midfielder. AM is his "2nd position".
