West Ham have reportedly asked Benfica for the price tag of promising youngster Joao Felix.
According to AS, the Hammers are one of several teams to make enquiries about the 19-year-old.
Felix has attracted a wealth of interest in recent months after impressing in Portugal, with the report claiming Real Madird, Paris Saint-Germain, Juventus, Monaco, Bayern and Milan have all made similar enquiries.
They also add that Benfica have already rejected a €60 million offer from an unnamed Premier League club.
For West Ham to complete an unlikely deal for Felix, with the huge asking price and competition from some of Europe’s biggest hitters, it would certainly be a major coup for the club.
Felix has a release clause of €120 million in his contract, something West Ham would never be able to pay, but potential suitors will be no doubt trying to negotiate a deal with the Portuguese side.
