Barcelona must steer clear of Joao Felix this summer

Have you ever seen anything as disrespectful as Joao Felix’s recent proclamation that it would be his dream to play for Barcelona?

Well, perhaps Ousmane Dembele going on strike at Dortmund before joining the Blaugranes is up there too, but for the 23-year-old Portuguese to effectively render his Atletico Madrid career over in such a manner speaks volumes about his character.

As does the fact that the Rojiblancos are desperate for him to leave.

It shouldn’t be forgotten that they paid Benfica over €100m for his services just four years ago.

Since then he’s also been loaned out to Chelsea of course, and has only started a total of 91 games between both clubs in all competitions during those four years.
