Benfica dream of Joao Felix's return.
In fact, there is nothing surprising, last season SAD under Rui Costa dreamed of the return of the Portuguese international, but there is a fundamental difference: last season it seemed like a practically impossible dream, now it would be a wish with a few more legs to walk.
On the one hand, Joao Felix was fully focused last summer on continuing his career abroad, if possible at a club where he felt his characteristics could suit him, such as Barcelona. On the other hand, the striker's market value a year ago was higher than it will be now, especially since last season in Catalonia did not go well.
Therefore, the dream of Joao Felix returning to Luz has become more realistic at this time.
In this sense, Benfica has already done so, as reported by the Catalan newspaper Sport, and More football He confirmed that there were contacts with Joao Felix to understand the possibility of the player's return, with the possibility of the club receiving 50 percent of the pass that is put on the table at that time.
Remember that Felix's pass belongs to Real Madrid, who have no interest in signing the player.
These talks have been going on for a few months and have not seen any significant developments in recent weeks. But there are two months left before the market closes, so there is still time to work on this file more vigorously.
João Félix continues to prioritize staying at Barcelona: the Portuguese international wants to try, at least once more, to succeed at a Catalan club. But he is not closing the door on Benfica. On the contrary, he will never close the door on Benfica.
For all this, the player's future will remain in the news in the coming weeks, and at this stage several solutions are being worked on, none of which is more advanced.
