Enrique Cerezo, president of Atlético Madrid, returned to the successful adaptation of Joao Félix to FC Barcelona.
Joao Félix (23 years old) has had a sparkling start to the season at Barça. Author of 3 goals and 2 assists in 4 matches in all competitions, the Portuguese international splashes the pitches with his talent, which can finally be expressed after four mixed seasons at Atlético Madrid. Something to delight the president of ColchonerosEnrique Cerezo.
“He’s our player, we have to protect him, help him and think that if he’s good, it’s good for us, explained the Madrid leader. We have always said, myself included, that he is a fantastic player and he shows it at Barça. He didn’t adapt with us, he wasn’t lucky. But he’s a great player at Barça, he was also a great player here. »
“Maybe he wasn’t ready to play with us yet, thus judged Cerezo. It doesn’t matter to me, it didn’t work with us, he didn’t express his full potential, at Chelsea either. There he achieved it at Barça. Great players always end up demonstrating it. »
As a reminder, the former Benfica nugget is on loan for a season from the Catalans without a purchase option. If he gives complete satisfaction to the reigning Spanish champions, they will have no other choice than to negotiate the transfer of the native of Viseu to keep him at the end of this exercise.
