Atletico Madrid refuses to welcome back Joao Felix: ‘We don’t want him here’
The ongoing saga between Joao Felix and Atletico Madrid has reached new heights as the Portuguese forward’s actions continue to anger the club’s supporters. Following his recent controversial declarations and actions both on and off the pitch, tensions are high as the upcoming clash between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid looms large on the horizon. The strained relationship between Felix and the Atleti faithful sets the stage for what promises to be an intense and fiery encounter in the near future.
Barcelona’s Joao Felix has stirred up controversy at Atletico Madrid since the summer, and tensions only rose further ahead of last weekend’s match between the two teams. Felix’s declaration of intent to join Barcelona and his comments on the clubs’ styles of play have not gone down well with the Rojiblanco faithful. His winning goal in the match and subsequent celebration only added fuel to the fire.
In response, Alberto García of the International Union of Atletico Madrid Supporters’ Clubs has released a statement condemning Felix’s actions, stating that he doesn’t deserve to wear the Atletico Madrid shirt and has shown disrespect to the club and its fans.
The upcoming fixture between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid at the Civitas Metropolitano on the 17th of March is sure to be a heated affair given the animosity between Felix and the Atletico fanbase.
