(Reuters) - Benfica are evaluating an 126 million euros (112.9 million pounds) offer for Portugal striker Joao Felix from Atletico Madrid, the Portuguese club said in a statement on Wednesday.

If terms are agreed, the 19-year-old would become the most expensive player in Atletico's history, smashing the La Liga side's transfer fee record of 72 million euros to sign France winger Thomas Lemar from AS Monaco last season.
