Besides, the relation between the luso, the fans and the trainer Diego Pablo Simeone went back extremely taut, what indicates that his bond with the Madrilenian club is entirely broken.

In regard to this, the exjugador of the 'Blues', the one who has had an excellent beginning of season with the FC Barcelona, annotating three goals and offering an assistance in three parties, has declared the following: "The one who is badly has to change of place. I have done it before for Chelsea and have done it now for the Barcelona because it was not well there, did not adapt me to the ideas of the club and of the trainer, but always tried to do it the best that could". With these words, the native of Viseu confirmed that the Athletic and the defensive approach of the 'Cholo' did not allow him deploy his best football.

"It could have done the better things..."

In front of this situation, one of the first in commenting was his excompañero in the combined of Madrid, Saúl Ñiguez. The midfield player took advantage of an interview in 'Movistar Plus' corresponding to the previous of the derbi Madrilenian to send him a message to the '14' of the Catalan cast, aseverando: "I wish Him all the best, that in the Barça go him all well, has begun very strong, think that he could have done the better things, has not done them and this at the end in the club has happened him bill logically".

Besides, the native of Elche left clear that Joãor Félix had difficulties during his period of adaptation by diverse reasons, limiting: "Afterwards it is necessary to want, try adapt and do a lot of things that in his head was not in his best moment or of the best way and could not be here".
