About João Félix

  • João Félix Sequeira (European Portuguese: [?u'?~w 'f?liks, -li?]; born 10 November 1999) is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays for Spanish club Atlético Madrid and the Portugal national team as a forward.
  • He can also play as a winger or an attacking midfielder. Félix initially trained at Porto's youth ranks before moving to rivals Benfica in 2015.
  • He began playing for the latter's reserve side a year later and was promoted to the first-team in 2018, making his professional debut at age 18.
  • He then starred as a goalscorer and helped Benfica win the league title in his first and only season with them, and was awarded Primeira Liga's Best Young Player of the Year.
  • Internationally, he became the youngest ever player to score a hat-trick in the UEFA Europa League, aged 19. Félix's performances sparked the interest of several European clubs, with Atlético Madrid signing him in 2019 for a club record transfer worth €126 million (£113 million), the fourth-most expensive football transfer, the second-most ever paid for a teenager and the highest fee for a Portuguese player leaving the domestic league. After being capped for Portugal's youth teams at under-18, under-19 and under-21 levels, Félix made his senior debut in the semi-finals of the 2019 UEFA Nations League Finals, won by Portugal on home soil.
