The signing of Joao Felix wasn't straightforward for Atletico Madrid.
CEO Miguel Angel Gil Marin can take a big chunk of the credit for persuading the talented youngster to move to Atletico Madrid over other top European clubs.
One of the main arguments that Gil Marin put across was the chance for Felix to be the main man.
He will take Antoine Griezmann's No.7 shirt and become the next star in Diego Simeone's team.
Gil Marin has also been willing to compete with the likes of Real Madrid, Manchester City and Juventus in terms of money and Felix's signing was the fourth most expensive transfer of all time at 127.2 million euros.
Gil Marin travelled to Portugal four times to try to convince the player to come to the Estadio Wanda Metropolitano, and those efforts have clearly paid off.

He is Jõao Felix not the "Next Ronaldo". He will create his own history in Atléti.
Nice speech

He will not perform as expected. Remember Renato Sanchez when Bayern buy from Benfica? Everyone say he is the next CR7 - the wonder kid. At the end they send him loan to Swansea and still flop. Return back to Bayern and still the same 🤷🏻♀️

That was his buy out clause ... burst on the scene last season but only played 3/4 of the season ... talented and shows promise ... but as a replacement for a proven player as Griezmann ?? Not for me .. and as I live in Portugal I did see him last season

You do know they're about to get 120 million for Griezmann right? And recently City paid Rodri's release clause as well
