Europe’s biggest clubs have been put on high alert by reports that Joao Felix is unhappy at Atletico Madrid and is desperate to leave the club in January.
Felix, who joined Atleti in a £113million transfer from Benfica in 2019, has reportedly fallen out with manager Diego Simeone and could be on the move at the earliest possible opportunity. Reports from Portugal say Felix has been “bullied” by Simeone and the situation came to a head when he was left on the bench for Atleti's midweek Champions League game against Club Brugge.
Although Simeone hasn’t responded to the allegations of bullying, he did speak about Felix this week. “With Joao, I'm finding it difficult to get the best out of him, but that's something I have to resolve,” he admitted. “I have to get the maximum out of all the players."
