THE FUTURE OF JOAO FÉLIX IS STILL IN THE AIR
Barça will take time to resolve the 'Joao Félix operation'
Despite the fact that FC Barcelona intends to try to get Joao Félix to join, it will do so in the last hours of the transfer market, when Atlético de Madrid has no choice but to let the Portuguese footballer leave
Joao Félix will be the big protagonist of the straight final of the market of signings. From it does some months is in 'campaign' to go out of the Athletic of Madrid, where is not comfortable and does not have the confidence of the trainer, but has not been simple by the economic pretences of the club, that resists to lose the investment of 127 million euros that did by him in 2019. The Portuguese pretends to follow insisting in doing his cases and knows that it has to be very patient, because the most likely is that they finish yielding.
Has to the FC Barcelona like destination dreamed and recently has confirmed that it will bet by his cession, but no right now. They remain eight days so that it close the window of transfers estival and, according to the information of Fabrizio Romano, specialist of the market of signings, the intention is to expect to the end to try the contracting of the player of 23 years. The blaugrana want to expect to that the 'colchoneros' do not have more 'remedy' that leave go out to Joao Félix in conditions less favourable that those that pretend.
Of the requirements of the Athletic to the interest of the Barça
Although it is a possible signing that does not generate consensus in the club, because Xavi Hernández follows without seeing it clear and prefers, for example, the incorporation of Giovani Celso, the Barça is had to put in the career by his incorporation. From the high spheres of the club understand that it would be an ideal movement by reasons of marketing and to have a 'star' and that in the sportive area can add a lot because, although in the Cívitas Metropolitan has not been able to explode, the Portuguese is a player 'with one thousand faces' and that it can adapt without problems to the team.
The problem, since it has been related with the Catalans, is that it is a very difficult signing to complete. As we mentioned before, from Madrid resist to give it and lose the investment that did by him, by what will exhaust his options so that it go out through a direct transfer or, at least, through a cession that include an economic compensation, as when it left to Chelsea. The mount of the price rondaría the seven or eight million euros, as it has come informing in the last weeks.
The patience will be the key
Like this then , from the City Condal are conscious that it is a very rocky operation but that the Atleti is the only that has the ones to lose, by what will finish yielding with such of 'undo' of the luso. The patience will be key, so much for Joao Félix as for the Barça, but also will be necessary that produce an exit in the Barcelona changing room to be able to assume the index card of the player, that would rise to the 15 millions. Ez Abde Is wrapped in rumours on a possible exit and, of agreement to 'Sportive World', his goodbye would be sufficient to tackle the incorporation of the 'descarte' of the 'Cholo' Simeone.
