The Portuguese, with half a season yet to be played, has equaled his records from last year. Everything that comes will be to improve what was his first season at Atlético.

João Félix played 36 games last season dressed as an Atletico. He played 27 LaLiga games, six in the Champions League, one in the Cup and two in the Spanish Super Cup.

He scored nine goals and gave three assists (six goals in the league competition, three in the Champions League; one assist in LaLiga, another in the Cup and another in the Champions League).

This 2020-21 season, the Atlético forward has played 25 games (18 in LaLiga, one in the Cup and six in the Champions League), with a total of 1,679 minutes played. He has scored nine goals and given five assists (six goals in the league tournament and three in the Champions League; and the five assists in LaLiga). That is, he has the same number of goals, although two more assists.

The Portuguese started the season at a very high level and then his performance dropped somewhat. In Cádiz he started, but previously Cholo had preferred Correa and João Félix stayed on the bench in several games, although he scored against Valencia and contributed to the victory against Valencia. Now you must stop testing positive for coronavirus.
