Joao Felix would be doing better if he had joined Real Madrid instead of Atletico Madrid, Carlos Carvalhal has said.
Carlos recently came out to say that Real Madrid would have put the youngster in a better position to develop his game.
According to him, Joao Felix is a player with incredible technical ability but Atletico’s way of playing is not the best for his career.
He added that even if things would have been more favourable for him at Real, he still expects him to transform to the player we all know he can be.
His words, “Joao Felix is a great player and I don’t want to create controversy with my statements. He is a player with incredible technical ability, with a great level. But I’m not sure Atletico’s way of playing is the best for him,”
“That was my doubt when he signed for them. Diego Simeone is a great coach, his teams are very strong, very competitive, but Joao Felix does not seem to be the perfect player to be there.
“In a different situation, we would see a great Joao Felix. It will be a little difficult and it will take time more time. He will have to transform as a player.
“If he had gone to a team like Real Madrid, he would be at a higher level. The context would be more favourable for him.
“It’s not a criticism of Simeone, there is no doubt about what he has achieved. The work speaks for itself, I just believe this marriage is not the best.”
