Two goals in thirteen games, one sending off in his debut and no assists. Joao Félix’s numbers at Chelsea do not feed Atlético’s hope of getting a good transfer for Portuguese. And the Santiago Bernabéu game against Madrid doesn’t help either.
Joao had the first goal chance of the match. A counterattack in which Militao regained ground and bothered him when setting up the shot. Then came two goals from Real Madrid and the disappearance of the player on loan from Atlético.
And the future of the Portuguese seems less clear than ever. “Chelsea is a team that likes to attack, they have the ball, they dominate the game. That’s how I like to play. I feel very free playing here. I love it », he said a few weeks ago, before eliminating Dortmund from the Champions League.
He was happy then. “He needed the loan,” she said. “I think he was good for me and for them,” she added. But Chelsea are closer to relegation than to qualifying for the Champions League. A fact that keeps Joao from continuing in London. He has always said that he wants to play in a Champions League team. The only chance for the London club to play in Europe next season is to win the Champions League. And for now he already has to come back from two goals against Real Madrid.
«Sterling and Joao Félix’s match was top. He is a great talent,” Lampard said after the game. when they asked him about the Portuguese. “In the second leg we will have a better sense of urgency, we will focus more on his goal and I think we will see more of these two players. We have a challenge », he added.
For that he has to improve the aim and the participation of Joao Félix. Against Real Madrid he shot three times, two of them between the three sticks, and touched 24 balls. Vinicius, Benzema and Rodrygo, for example, intervened more than 50 times. 56 Benzema, the least; 58 Rodrygo and 59 Vinicius.
His continuity at Atlético is also complicated. Miguel Ángel Gil already warned before his departure that the club would have to choose between him and Simeone. And the continuity of Cholo seems more secure than ever after the second leg of the season that his team is doing.
Since he left Atlético, the only loss the rojiblancos have suffered was in the Cup against Real Madrid. But in the League they have not been defeated since the last game the Portuguese played, 0-1 against Barcelona, and it is already close to second place when until the World Cup break even its presence in the Champions League seemed doubtful next season.
