Back on the pitch after surgery on his right ankle, João Felix spoke about the start of the Champions League game scheduled for next Wednesday against Porto.
“I know the team very well, its characteristics and manner of play. I’m ready for this game, “said the Portuguese national team player after talking about the difficulties he expects in a group that also includes Liverpool and Milan: We have a difficult group with teams that are the best in their countries. These will be very close matches, but we will do our job to always get three points. “
Speaking on the official Atletico Madrid channels, João Felix also spoke about his return to the competition last Sunday against Espanyol after about two months of recovery.
“It was, of course, difficult, football players never find it easy when you feel bad. I did it on my own behalf and to help the team. I have now recovered, fully focused this season. I felt good [no jogo com o Espanhol], I haven’t felt this in a long time. I felt free to make movements that used to hurt me. My game is back and I hope to be more prepared than ever, ”he stressed.
