For Bernardo Silva, Joao Felix was not supposed to join Atletico Madrid.
In an interview with the Portuguese newspaper “A Bola”.Bernardo Silva was asked about Joao Felix and his move to Atletico Madrid. The choice of destination was not the right one for him because it does not match the qualities of the striker who is currently on loan to FC Barcelona.
” You have to understand that Manchester City and Atletico Madrid are very different culturally. I'm not saying one is better than the other, but for me, I got to a place that perfectly matched my qualifications, with a coach who thinks the same way as me, who loves possession… Everything was fine. excellent. » he said for the first time.
” In my opinion, choosing Felix was not the right choice. Personally, I wouldn't have had the same success at Atletico as I did in Manchester. I was going to adapt, I was going to do my best, but it wasn't ideal for me. (…) Today I am happy to see things are better for him. He's happiest in a place that suits his style of play best. We have to give him time so he can perform better, because he went through a difficult phase. »
