Selected with Portugal during the Euro in Germany, João Félix (24 years old) did not really manage to shine. However, he was counting on this competition to convince Barça to recruit him permanently or possibly other clubs to bet on him. But there is not really a rush to the gate. At one time interested, Aston Villa and Fenerbahçe have moved on. For its part, FC Barcelona still has the idea of bringing him back according to World Sports.

But the case has not really moved forward. This Wednesday, Record says that Benfica is pushing to bring back the former player. The Portuguese have already tried earlier this summer. And they are ready to continue since they have resumed negotiations with Atlético de Madrid. It remains to be seen whether Benfica will succeed in convincing the Colchoneros and João Félix.
