With Simeone, he offended Ronaldo, and his genius could not resist his bad personality

At the request of a friend, I would talk about Felix, a Portuguese genius who was once proud of but could not resist his bad personality.

On November 10, 1999, Joao Felix was born in Viseu, southeast of Porto, northern Portugal. His parents are both engaged in sports-related industries, one is a physical trainer and the other is a physical education teacher. Felix lives in such an environment and will naturally fall in love with sports.

Because his football talent is dazzling enough, Felix was invited by Porto youth training camp as early as the age of 9 and was regarded as an excellent seedling by this old Portuguese family. However, Felix's trip to Porto was not pleasant. Before he could get promoted to the first team, he parted ways with his boss.

Everything has a reason. One of the key reasons why Felix couldn't get along with the Porto youth training camp is that he has some problems with his personality, he can't handle his teammates well, and he is not very adapted to the fiercely competitive environment.

Fortunately, this football genius that can be seen in the naked eye has never lacked suitors. Not long after he bid farewell to the Porto youth training camp, he found his next home. A few years later, another youth training camp of Benfica, a traditional Portuguese wealthy family, also extended an olive branch to him.

Felix had a very happy life while playing football at Benfica Youth Training Camp. He stands out among his peers and is the undisputed core of offensive action. Not long after, he attracted the attention of Benfica's first team and stepped onto the stage of the professional league. In his first season, that is, the 2018-19 season, he paid a gorgeous data sheet of 20 goals and 8 assists.

Felix was less than 20 years old at this time. Let me ask, how many players under 20 years old can perform like this in the Portuguese League? Felix became popular without any surprise. Not only did he become famous in Portuguese football, but he even became popular in the entire European football world. I don’t know how many clubs want to attract him.

A celebrity of this level will naturally be rewarded by those with higher prices. In order to get the Portuguese genius, Atletico Madrid, a veteran La Liga club, offered a super high transfer fee of 126 million euros, which defeated a number of competitors.

Atletico Madrid paid such a huge price to get Felix, so naturally he regarded him as the cornerstone of the team building, which was so exciting. However, Atletico Madrid's excitement did not last long, and it turned into frustration, even doubt. Because anyone with a discerning eye can see that Felix is not suitable for Simeone's tactical system at all.

Simone's tactical philosophy has never been a secret. The whole team has to defend desperately, and no one can enjoy the special treatment of not defending. Even Griezmann at his peak was no exception, let alone Felix, who was not as good as Griezmann in terms of status and strength. It is impossible to count on Simeone to give Felix special treatment.

Regularly speaking, the players should adapt to the coach. Especially those players who have not yet made a name for themselves should obey the coach's arrangements. But Felix's personality is really bad. Even when facing a coach of Simeone's level, this Portuguese genius will do his own thing. According to famous reporter Gilliam Barrag, Felix ignored deaf ears no matter what mission Simeone arranged.

With Simeone's personality, how could he tolerate such a subordinate? The result is that Felix's life at Atletico Madrid was not easy, and he was replaced too many times.

However, Felix obviously did not learn from his lessons and still did his own way. He had already suffered losses at Atletico Madrid and soon got into trouble with the Portuguese national team. When facing reporters' inquiries, Felix actually said, "I don't think I have an obligation to pass the ball to Ronaldo."

Royce's status in the world is there. Felix's statement is obviously inappropriate and will obviously offend Ronaldo, the superstar of the emperor. For a moment, many media and fans criticized Felix, believing that Felix lacked emotional intelligence is extremely common.

The storm has not yet passed, and Felix has made a mess at Atletico Madrid again. This Portuguese genius actually publicly expressed his intention to leave Atletico Madrid and completely offended Simeone. Simeone didn't spoil Felix and directly loaned him to Chelsea.

Felix's problem mainly comes from himself, and this cannot be solved by a different boss. His performance during his days at Chelsea did not meet expectations and was soon returned by Stamford Bridge. In the summer of 2023, Felix briefly returned to Atletico Madrid. At this time, he could no longer stop his desire to leave the team, and he would quarrel with Atletico Madrid director Berta and leave Atletico Madrid. As a result, Simeone became more and more disgusted with Felix and directly transferred him to the reserve team.

Fortunately, there are still clubs who are willing to give Felix a chance. For example, the veteran La Liga giant Barcelona reached an agreement with Atletico Madrid to introduce Felix on loan. Although Felix still had a contract with Atletico Madrid at this time, he was so excited after breaking the Atletico Madrid goal. When the reporter asked Simeone about the matter, the Atletico manager replied meaningfully, "I don't want to discuss the opponent's players."

When Simeone said this, it already means that the Atletico Madrid coach and Felix are incompatible. When Felix's loan contract with Barcelona expired, Simeone had no intention of keeping anyone. Felix had no choice but to pack his bags and report to other clubs.

In the next 2024-25 season, Felix wore Chelsea and Milan's jerseys, but he couldn't understand. During his time in Milan, he even had a conflict with Walker.

The ball is not clear, and the temper is still so big. When Felix got to this point, few European giants were willing to believe him. So much so that this Portuguese genius can only go to the Saudi League to make gold...
