Transfer window: another improbable turnaround for João Félix

ARTICLE AD

A few years ago, João Félix was the darling of European football. But today, it is clear that the attacking midfielder has almost become a plague. Atlético de Madrid is doing everything to get rid of him, while neither Chelsea a little over a year ago nor Barça this summer wanted to keep him after two rather mediocre loans.

To make matters worse, he was also pretty average during this Euro 2024 with the Portuguese team. Suffice to say that it will be difficult for the Colchoneros to find a buyer for the player who is training on the fringes of the group. Aston Villa and Fenerbahçe have been mentioned in the Spanish and European media in recent weeks, but nothing has moved forward since then. Until this Monday…

Hansi Flick on the baton

This is indeed a funny piece of information revealed by World Sports. We learn that FC Barcelona now wants to keep him. Author of 10 goals and 6 assists with the Blaugranas during his loan, he was not in the management’s plans, but Hansi Flick clearly wants to have him under his orders. The Catalan media explains that the German has always been a fan of the Portuguese, who he already wanted to offer to Bayern.

On top of that, the arrival of Nico Williams could well be complicated since the Spaniard could finally decide to stay at Athletic, and Félix would be the ideal alternative in Flick’s eyes. Barça also knows that it is in a strong position to negotiate a new loan, since Atlético has not received any offers and Simeone does not want him in his squad. We therefore risk seeing Félix in the Blaugrana jersey again when the season resumes…
