Felix ignored Man City and Barcelona for moving to Atletico Madrid

The Portuguese star shone on his Benfita season, drawing great attention from European football giants.

The team, like Manchester City, Juventus, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, sought Portuguese services, but eventually it was Atletico the team that received his signature.

Still, it is taught that Felix was advised to move on to City or Barca, but he ignored such counsel. That's what the player coach did in U19, Paeva.

I told City or Barcelona. I told City about the Guardillas, or Barca, the way they play. I think Joao's characteristics are more appropriate for that” game said Paivat, broadcast the news.net.

“E respect Atletico, but I think City was a better idea for Joao, especially with Pep Guardiolan” has let Paiva know, suggesting that Joao had ignored the two European giants to get past Atletico.

Joao Felix has miraculously launched his adventure with the Spaniards, seems to have enjoyed it all, even justifying it to some point.
