Fichajes claims Liverpool have identified Felix as a target next summer after his struggles at Atleti this term.
The Portugal international, 21, has featured just three times for the LaLiga champions.
And despite paying around £113m for his services from Benfica two years, Atleti are open to offers.
It’s claimed the Spanish giants would only look to recoup £68m, which they can put towards re-signing Antoine Griezmann permanently from Barcelona.
Felix would provide Jurgen Klopp with yet another top option for his attack.
The forward can play either as a central striker or a winger.
And Liverpool fans will be dreaming of seeing him alongside star man Salah.
The Egyptian, 29, has been in red-hot form this season with nine goals in as many games.

However, reports had suggested Salah was keeping his options open over his future next year.
But it’s now claimed Liverpool are progressing in contract talks.
And signings like Felix would only strengthen the Reds’ chances in convincing Salah to stay put and challenge for more trophies.
