Joao Felix: "With the team we have, I'm sure we'll fight for the Champions League next year"

MADRID, 25 May. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The Portuguese forward of Atlético de Madrid, Joao Felix, believes that the elimination of the Champions League this year was "difficult" because they were "everyone plugged in with the objective" of doing well in the competition, but that "with the team" that they have, "surely" that they fight "for the title".

"It was difficult, but we were all focused on the objective and we were clear about what we wanted. Next year we will be in the Champions League and to fight it we will have to be more regular, which we were not this season, but with the team we have, we will surely fight for the title", commented Joao Felix after receiving the award for Five Star Player of the 2021/22 season from Atlético de Madrid organized by Mahou.

The international reviewed how his third year as a mattress maker was. "I felt good, although I started injured, at times playing more, at others less. I felt good, although next season we have to improve", he declared.

In addition, he valued the return of fans to the stands of the stadiums, a circumstance that has been resumed this season. "It has no comparison with playing without an audience, it's another sport and clearly we really like having our fans," added Joao Felix.

About the next season, the striker was optimistic about the possibility of being able to win a trophy, as he already did in the 2020/21 season, when they won LaLiga Santander. "We face it with great enthusiasm, we want to win titles and I am confident that next year we will be able to do it. For this we all have to start with enthusiasm and have that hunger for titles and win to fight for titles," he said.

Finally, the Portuguese also wanted to remember his team's supporters when collecting the award. "It is an award that I like to receive. I want to thank the fans who voted for me for the player of the month awards. I thank them and also my team, a player cannot do it alone and if I won this award it is also for them," he concluded.
