Joao Felix, reflecting on his impressive start at Barcelona, acknowledges a smoother adaptation compared to his time at Atletico Madrid. Since his transfer from Atletico during the summer transfer window, the 23-year-old has scored three goals and provided two assists.
At Atletico Madrid, he was uninspiring and his broken relationship with head coach Diego Simeone also contributed to his departure.
Speaking to the media ahead of Barcelona’s match against FC Porto on Wednesday, Felix acknowledged that he has felt more at home at his current club rather than his parent one.
“As I have said several times, the difference between Barcelona and Atletico can be seen in everything, in the team, the club. We can see the way Barcelona plays compared to Atletico. It is not bad, but I have adapted better to the way that Barcelona plays. Now I’m happy and it’s the most important thing.
“Barcelona is a big club, everyone knows their way of playing. I’ve adapted very well, but the most difficult thing is to keep this level up.”
