The message is very clear. Atlético de Madrid no longer counts on João Félix. After loaning the Portuguese to Chelsea last winter, the Spanish club is clearly pushing its player towards the exit. His number 7 was given to Antoine Griezmann and yesterday a heated argument broke out between the player and Colchoneros sporting director Andrea Berta. The reason ? Félix was simply excluded from an opposition between the holders and the substitutes. Invited to find another club, ‘the former Benfiquista is in trouble. His father, Carlos Sequeira, came out of silence to discuss this complicated situation.
“Of course, this situation affects him, but he has to stay calm, because things will be resolved one way or another, or I don’t know. Whatever he decides, for us, it’s a good thing. João has an agent looking after him, it’s Jorge Mendes. They are the ones who manage it, I have nothing concrete. I don’t like being told that there is such and such a possibility, because it creates expectations that may not come true.”he told Radio Renascenca.
