a labyrinth. That is what it has become, as already happened in the summer of 2023, the future of Joao Felix. Its continuity in Atlético It is impossible and a way out is being sought in the form of a transfer. In the background, as happened 365 days ago, a new loan to Barça. It is the will of the Blaugrana and also that of the player himself, who began to break the deck with the club that has his pass in those statements swearing eternal love to the team chaired by John Laportahis great supporter.
But as in 2023 there is a guest in contention. He is none other than Benficathe club where he was formed and where he broke into the elite with such force that in just six months Atlético chipped 127 million euros. Money that must be remembered because it is still key taking into account the famous amortization. In this case, more than 60 kilos remain from the transfer once five years have passed since its signing and there are another five years left to reach the end of the contract in 2029.
“Benfica loves him,” they acknowledged a year ago after the disappointment of Chelsea, where he had played on loan, and PSG, where he tried to leave, not having the approval of either of their two coaches. Pochettino and Luis Enrique. The Lisbon club remained attentive to its future and now it is again… once again.
Cerezo: “How is Joao Félix not going to laugh, if he is always asked the same thing?”
No formal offer
At Atlético there is evidence that he is one of Benfica’s objectives For this summer. A claim from what was the team’s jewel five years ago, but there has been no formal contact to make an offer for his services as has been published by Portuguese media.
There is talk of a proposal for 20 million for 50% of the pass (in England they rise to more than 30) which, if it finally arrived, would be rejected as insufficient. They consider in the offices of the Metropolitan that it is a price that does not adjust to the market value of the footballer and that, if they are really serious about Joao, they would have to bet bigger… something they did not do a year ago when this started new soap opera Felix. And so far they haven’t done it… yet.
