Atletico Madrid agrees to sell Felix to La Liga rivals Barcelona 

In a quick reaction, Atletico Madrid responded to the demands of Portuguese star Joao Felix, the winger of the team, and decided to sell him to FC Barcelona, after the player stated that Barca was his dream since childhood. Felix is expected to be on the move this summer, after the end of his six-month loan from Atleti to Chelsea, and has told Fabrizio Romano that it would be his 'dream' to play at the Camp Nou for Barcelona. “I’d love to play for Barça," he said. “Barcelona has always been my first choice and I’d love to join Barça. It was always my dream since I was a kid. If it happens, it will be a dream come true for me." According to the Spanish newspaper “AS”, Atletico Madrid gave Felix approval to go to Barcelona on loan with an option to buy. In turn, Barcelona reviewed its financial and practical accounts, economically possible, and everything could be completed this week. Jorge Mendez, the player's agent, is working to transfer Joao to Barca on loan, as he will come without paying a loan fee. The player's salary is not a problem for Barcelona because he will be in the middle of the salary block and there is space to register him. Felix had spent the second half of last season on loan with Chelsea, and the Portuguese returned to Atletico Madrid but was linked to the possibility of leaving.
