Curiously, this is precisely what he has communicated to Atletico Madrid as well.
Currently, both the sports management at Barcelona and Hansi Flick are in accord that it is best for Felix to stay, and they are now gearing up to negotiate his stay for another season.
Flick wants Felix to continue
Flick is now tasked with the responsibility of extracting the utmost potential from the footballer because, within the team, there is a growing sense of belief that Xavi failed to get the best out of the player.
Now, they are hopeful that Flick can rectify this situation. While there is still much ground to cover, should Felix embark on another campaign with the Blaugrana, he will do so with the reassurance that the coach is firmly behind him.
There is a unanimous consensus between the German coach and the sports management in this regard and with the club and coach on the same page, half of the journey seems to be paved in their favour. But they are not alone in this stance.
Felix has rejected big-money offers
Now that Felix himself is keen on staying at Barcelona, it leaves only Atletico Madrid as the differential.
It is said that all parties involved believe that repeating the current arrangement for the upcoming season is the optimal choice.
Moreover, Barcelona highly esteem Felix’s eagerness to remain with the club. Despite receiving a lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia, the 24-year-old forward has firmly declined to leave the football elite.
He has not even entertained the idea of being loaned to Benfica, a proposal from Atletico, indicating his desire to don the Blaugrana colours.
