In the 19-20 season, after Griezmann joined Barcelona, Felix became Atletico's new hope for a time: 1With a transfer fee of 2.7 billion euros, Benficati Star led the team to the semi-finals of the Europa League, and Felix had a faint tendency to become the next generation of leaders. But in the years at Atletico, Felix has not shown a convincing performance, and this season on loan to Barcelona, Felix ushered in a new opportunity, but his value in the German transfer market has fallen to 40 million euros.
As he complained about Atletico, his attacking talent was indeed a bit wasted at Atletico. After joining Barcelona, Felix scored three goals in his first 14 league games for Barcelona, one more than in the same period at Atletico Madrid. He did give everything to Barcelona, facing the passion of his old boss Atletico Madrid, against Valencia, Felix withstood a back injury, but he was still able to score a goal, although his ability to lead the team is not as good as his predecessors, but according to this growth curve to develop a season, in the giant team to seek a position in the main rotation, there is still a chance.
But for Atletico, Felix's problem is not just a transfer. Previously, Atletico Madrid played Barcelona, Felix celebrated with his old owner after scoring a goal, and Atletico Madrid couldn't see it, and he clashed with Felix on the field. Atletico Madrid will no longer compromise on Felix's loan, and will no longer enjoy a free loan at the end of this season's loan period, and Atletico Madrid want to receive a loan fee of 15 million euros, and the loan contract must also include a mandatory buyout clause.
In order to stay at Barca, Felix made considerable sacrifices. Before joining Barcelona, Felix and Simeone had a very unpleasant quarrel, clashing with the training equipment at the training ground, and when all the Atletico Madrid players mourned for the fans, Felix went his own way on the bench alone. Felix made considerable sacrifices in order to join Barcelona, and his current annual salary is only 400,000 euros, which is the lowest annual salary player for Barca.
At Camp Nou, Felix did show his talent. Last season, Barcelona played as a left winger with Dembele, and Gavi, the former helping Barcelona to instantly increase the tempo, and the latter allowing Barcelona to maintain a four-midfield and maintain absolute control of the midfield. After getting Felix, Barcelona has the right to choose from the left side: whether it is to withdraw to the midfield to cooperate, or to use small skills to pass and shoot in front of the penalty area, Xavi's tactical options are quite generous.
But since his debut, Felix's instability has not changed. After joining Atletico Madrid, he was gradually activated by Simeone, and on loan to Chelsea, he went high and low, and after arriving at Barcelona, because the center of gravity was too high, Felix's lack of core strength was targeted by opponents, which made him easy to lose the ball and become an offensive finisher in another sense.
For Felix, the Portuguese are ready to start all over again, but Barcelona are not. The player's contract with Atletico expires in 2029 and the Sheets have pinched Felix's future, and given Felix's move to rub salt in Atletico's wounds, the Portuguese's departure will be infinitely more difficult in the next two off-seasons.
