Atletico Madrid Firm on Joao Felix’s Future: Demands €15m Loan Fee with Obligatory Buyout Option
Relevo’s Matteo Moretto reports that Atletico Madrid is resolute in not allowing Joao Felix to join Barcelona on another free loan. If Barcelona seeks another loan, Atletico is inclined to request a substantial €15m, coupled with an obligatory buyout option for 2025. The Madrid club places an estimated value of €80m on the Portuguese talent. Atletico Madrid is steadfast in parting ways with Joao Felix, expressing a desire for the 24-year-old not to continue playing for the club. Barcelona, considering potential options, could propose a player exchange, possibly involving Ferran Torres or other valuable assets. However, uncertainty looms over whether Barcelona will pursue Joao Felix given his current form, with 6 goals and 3 assists in 20 appearances for the Catalans.
