The Portuguese Joao Felix, the star of Atletico Madrid, sent a special message to Barcelona.
Felix’s name was associated with the departure to Barcelona during the current summer Mercato, but Barca has not held any official negotiations with Atletico Madrid yet.
According to the Catalan newspaper “Sport”, Felix’s representatives sent a message to Barcelona stating that if the Portuguese striker leaves Atletico Madrid, he only wants to move to Barca, and he is willing to risk until the last day of the market if necessary.
And the newspaper added, that Felix is fully aware that there are other priorities for Barcelona, such as his compatriots Joao Cancelo and Bernardo Silva, and yet he hopes that he will end up moving to the Blaugrana.
And the newspaper pointed out that Atletico Madrid will not give up on Felix easily, as it set a very small negotiating margin to allow the departure of the Portuguese striker.
And she confirmed that Barcelona would not sign with Felix, except in the event of the departure of either Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres.
Barcelona asked Jorge Mendes, Felix’s agent, to wait until the last day on the market.
The Catalan club needs to leave 3 players to sign Felix, and these three are: Dest, Lenglet, Fati or Ferran.
