Atletico Madrid agree to extend Joao Felix’s loan stint at Barcelona

According to a report from SPORT, Atletico Madrid have agreed to Barcelona’s request for another loan deal involving Joao Felix.

The report highlights that Barcelona’s management highly appreciates Felix’s desire to continue playing for their team.
