Atletico Madrid forward Joao Felix’s brother Hugo Felix has spoken out in support of his brother’s love for Barcelona.
The Portugal international has been rumoured to complete a move to the Catalan club this summer.
Felix has admitted that representing his current employer’s La Liga rivals is a childhood dream:
However, the player’s statement has put his current club in a difficult situation, where he is under contract until 2027. With regard to the statement, Felix’s brother was quoted by SPORT, “You already know my opinion. This is a decision of the clubs, which have to meet and find a final proposal.
“He was very brave. I don’t remember that a player has shown such clear love for a club. He has already said it that he wants to go to Barça.”
MARCA have revealed that Blaugrana would have to pay a fee of €16 million to acquire the services of the player on a single-year loan deal.
