Joao Felix’s Reasons for Choosing Atletico Madrid

DBasia.news –  Joao Felix went to Atletico Madrid by breaking the club purchase record. The young Portuguese player was bought for 126 million euros.

After undergoing several preseason matches with Atletico Madrid, Felix also revealed the main reason for joining Rojiblancos. For him, the city rivals Real Madrid is the right place for him to develop a career.

“For me, Atletico Madrid is the home to world-class attackers. In the past, I knew a lot of their players were great. I want to be one of them. That is why I came here,” he said.

Atletico Madrid has never had a row of world-class attackers without breaking up. Starting from Fernando Torres, Sergio Aguero, Diego Forlan, to Diego Costa.

About the idolized player, Felix mentions the name of the former city rivals player, Cristiano Ronaldo. Not surprising because both of them come from the same country.

“Cristiano managed to win several Ballon d’Or here. I want to do the same with him. That is the dream of all players,” said Felix.
