Joao Felix is shining this season at FC Barcelona. Loaned by Atletico de Madrid until the end of the season, the Portuguese international is seducing everyone within the Catalan club. The 24-year-old winger seems to be thriving in the Catalan squad.
Which was not the case with the Colchoneros where he was dragging his spleen. In an interview given to Movistar+his former partner Antoine Griezmann returned to the case of the Portuguese when he was in Diego Simeone’s squad.
For the star of the France team, Joao Felix lacked consistency and was unable to adapt to the Argentine coach’s playing philosophy.
“ João Félix had moments where he did things very well, where he worked very well, but you have to be constant, and perhaps he reached a point where he was tired, no longer saw himself here, and that’s why he made the effort, as did the club. When you arrive here, you know how the coach, the team is. Either you adapt and work for it, or things don’t work for you.” did he declare.

Despite a sparkling start with Barça, Joao Felix is not sure he will continue the adventure with the Blaugrana next season. The Portuguese international is expected to initially return to the Spanish capital but will subsequently be sold to a club that will be willing to align with the Colchoneros’ demands.
Under contract until June 2029 its market value currently reaches 50 million euros according to the site Transfermarkt.
