We ain’t discussing Joao with Barça; but he knows if he balls out, he can go anywhere
Enrique Cerezo, president of Atlético de Madrid, spoke before the match that the Atlético team played against FC Barcelona at the Metropolitano.
The red and white leader talked about the main topic of the game, the presence of Joao Félix. He started by requesting respect for him.
“We welcomed him very well, just like we welcome any of our players like Joao Félix. Right now, what fans need to do is show respect to the players, especially if they are ours. Joao is an outstanding player, with incredible potential. Our fans should greet him with applause, as he deserves, not with jeers,” said the Atlético president.
Cerezo mentioned that during the board meeting, they did not discuss the Portuguese player, but he left the possibility open for him to stay at FC Barcelona. “We talked about today’s game, about LaLiga, about the Premier League, about many things,” he mentioned. “We didn’t touch on Joao, but that doesn’t mean anything. He knows that by performing well, he can choose where he wants to play,” added the Atlético president.
ABOUT THE MATCH
“Tonight, we will aim to win, as we always do. Whether we achieve it or not is another story. And then, like we do at the start of every season, we will strive to be in the top three. Currently, we are in fifth place, but the gap to second is small,” he concluded about the match against FC Barcelona.
