Felix upset Atleti supporters by celebrating his winning goal for Barcelona against his parent club during their recent La Liga match. His actions followed earlier incidents where he criticized Diego Simeone’s coaching style and expressed a desire to remain at Barcelona.
Alberto Garcia, representing the International Union of Supporters Clubs of Atletico Madrid, expressed strong disapproval of Felix’s conduct over the past week. Garcia released a statement prohibiting Felix from returning, citing Felix’s recent celebration as particularly disrespectful given his limited success in La Liga and his apparent affinity for Barcelona.
Despite a mixed start at Barcelona with five goals and three assists in 15 appearances, the club reportedly intends to pursue Felix on a permanent basis. However, Atletico Madrid is reluctant to let him go easily.
Felix is expected to feature in Barcelona’s upcoming match against Girona, where they aim to narrow the gap with their La Liga title rivals by securing a win.
