Joao Felix wants to play for a Champions League club amidst Tottenham interest
According to Spanish outlet Onda Cero, Atletico Madrid forward Joao Felix wants to play for a Champions League club next season amidst interest from Tottenham Hotspur.
Following a loan spell at Chelsea, Felix is set to return to his parent club, Atletico Madrid. The Spanish side, it is said, is open to letting him go. Additionally, Felix himself is reportedly open to the idea of a fresh start elsewhere.
Thus, the stage seems set for a potential transfer. However, there’s a catch. Felix has made it clear that he aspires to play for a club participating in the illustrious UEFA Champions League next season.
Unfortunately for Tottenham, their recent campaign fell short of securing a place in Europe’s premier club competition. It was a season riddled with challenges, both on and off the pitch, resulting in their failure to qualify.
Under the guidance of new manager Ange Postecoglou, Tottenham is expected to undergo a significant squad overhaul this summer. Many players are anticipated to depart, making way for fresh faces in the dressing room.
In light of this, there have been persistent rumours linking James Maddison with a move to North London. The skilful midfielder has reportedly attracted Tottenham’s attention, and talks with Leicester City are said to be underway.
Tottenham supporters can anticipate a whirlwind of activity in the transfer market, as the club seeks to reinforce their ranks. However, amid this potential frenzy, the prospects of signing Joao Felix seem increasingly unlikely.
Tottenham’s absence from this elite club of clubs puts them in a challenging position when vying for the signatures of coveted players like Felix. Someone as talented as the Portuguese forward is not going to be short of any suitors.

Only time will tell where Felix ends up. Until Kane is there, there seems to be no logic in signing Felix as he does not have the work rate to play as an attacking midfielder. Let’s see what Tottenham are thinking.
