Joao Felix stated at the outset of the summer that he wanted to play for Barcelona, and he is now demonstrating that both on and off the pitch.
He fits well in with Xavi’s team, and his skill and class are tailor-made for the Camp Nou fans
But he’s also enjoying getting involved in the typical off-field back and forth between Barca and Real Madrid fans.
The Portuguese thought he had a crucial assist for his countryman Joao Cancelo in last night’s draw with Granada, but despite his header across goal being legal, it was judged that Ferran Torres was offside – and interfering with play.
There’s been disbelief in Catalonia ever since, and the predictable cries of corruption. Felix joined in by liking a Tweet which compared the situation in that goal to that of one scored by Joselu for Real Madrid against Getafe in the 95th minute in September – which was allowed.
