This Friday, in the final moments of the summer transfer window, FC Barcelona strengthened itself in a very beautiful way by recruiting Joao Felix and Joao Cancelo. In the official statement for the first city, the Catalans nevertheless wanted to specifically thank the former Benfica for having sacrificed himself in order to come: “the club would like to thank the player for his economic effort and his desire to wear the Barça jersey.»
El Mundo gives us this Saturday more detail on this compromise accepted by Felix. Indeed, according to the Spanish publication, the latter, who received 6 million per year net from the Colchoneros, will only receive three million euros net in Catalonia. In short, the Portuguese international has halved his salary to be able to play at Barça. In the deadlock at Atlético Madrid, a transfer was absolutely necessary for the versatile 23-year-old striker who will now have to find the thread of his promising career under the orders of Xavi.
