Will Joao Félix become the new star signing of FC Barcelona? The club's president, Joan Laporta, has shown interest in the Portuguese midfielder in the past, and now, after the player's statements, rumors of a possible transfer are intensifying

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The talented Portuguese player, Joãor Félix, has given enough that speak in the last days in the City Condal. The Portuguese, in an interview with the recognised skilled journalist in signings, Fabrizio Romano, recognised that his dream was to play in the FC Barcelona. Apparently, the words of the footballer have caused stir in Can Barça, catapulting it to the orbit of possible incorporations that could tackle the culés for this season.

When seeming, the 'feeling' between the attacker and the Barcelona institution is mutual, since the ex of the Benfica has interested in the combined blaugrana in the past. Even, in his moment arrived to offer a barter between him and Antoine Griezmann, when this last formed part of the Barça. However, that did not prosper in that then because the Portuguese had a poster of 'intocable', which seems to have him fallen from the past season, since it left to explain in the cast of the 'Cholo' Simeone, to the point that it was sent yielded to Chelsea FC.

The wishes are of part and part

The Portuguese does not have 'cut' and has offered publicly to the club of Catalan capital. It has referred to the fact of enfundarse the elastic culé like a true dream that has had from small and that it wants to do reality. Besides, it has highlighted that the Barcelonan square always has been his first option and that "would love him play in the Barça". It is all a statement of intentions of the forward that has not attained to settle in Spain neither neither in England, after descollar in the Benfica.

The transaction by the native of Viseo would not be of the all indifferent for the Barcelona directive, at least for his president Joan Laporta, the one who in March of the past year, in an interview, recognised that the mediapunta was a player that called him a lot the attention, standing out: "To me Joao Félix likes me a lot of, if I have to say you like fan. But no of now... And it knows it his representative. I expect that the Atleti do not anger by this, but also have said it to him to them. It is a big player". It would be necessary to see if his point of view on this player keeps on being the same or has changed his perspective, in front of the bajón of level that had Félix in the last time.

It would fit Joãor Félix in this Barça?

The youth of Joãor is a plus to his favour. A player of his category would not come him badly to the FC Barcelona, if it restarts the continuity and his best level, definitively is a differential footballer. Now, it would be necessary to see that use could give him Xavi, since the egarense does not work with a system that use to a mediapunta, which is used to to be the zone of action of the Portuguese. The same it could take advantage of it like leading centre or extreme by left. The only problem in this transaction would go through the wishes of the Athletic of Madrid of not yielding to a player that can go back to be stellar to a direct rival, in addition to the already referred problem with the 'Fair Play' financial. Independently that they tackle gone out, the index card of the player would keep on being costly, by what the possibility to incorporate him has some dyes of utopia.
