One of the players who joined FC Barcelona in the last summer transfer window, Joao Felix, is integrating quickly into his new club. This integration is not only limited to the pitch, as he is also becoming increasingly involved in the dressing room and with the fans.
As already reported here, the Barcelona coaching staff was surprised with how the Portuguese forward is getting incorporated into the club, as he is becoming more involved in the dressing room and is showing great willingness to adapt to Xavi’s training and playing methods.

He is also developing a strong bond with the club’s fans, and has already converted most of his sceptics with his performances in the last two matches. But it is not only his on-the-pitch performances that are endearing him to the fans.
As SPORT has reported, the forward was seen visiting the Palau Blaugrana to watch a handball match between Barcelona and Magdeburg on the second matchday of the EHF Champions League. Barcelona won the match with a 32-20 scoreline.
Supporting his compatriots
In addition to making an appearance for the fans, Felix also appeared in this match to support one of his compatriots, Luis Frade. There are some other Portuguese players also playing in different sections of the club with Andre Coelho and Erick playing indoor soccer and Joao Rodrgiues playing roller hockey.
Joao Felix has shown the level of his game with his performances in the last two games. However, players at different sections of the club already believed that Felix would be a great signing for the club.
One Barcelona handball player, Pol Valera, assured Felix “is a good signing”, and Dika Mem described his signing as “the image of the club”.
