João Félix – Football’s Flying Nomad

João Félix isn’t just a footballer anymore — he’s become football’s very own Sinbad.
Since leaving Benfica, he’s been on a whirlwind journey across Europe (and beyond), riding what feels like a magic carpet of endless loans and transfers.

It started with a record-breaking move to Atlético Madrid, but Diego Simeone’s rigid tactics never fit Félix’s free-flowing style. Soon after, he was off to Chelsea, where his debut ended with a red card — a perfect symbol of that short-lived spell.

Then came a brighter stint at Barcelona, where he showed glimpses of magic, only to fade as competition increased. A move to AC Milan offered a fresh start, but even that didn’t feel like “home.”

Now? He’s in Al Nassr, landing next to Cristiano Ronaldo in the Saudi Pro League.

João Félix is a reminder that talent alone isn’t enough — you need the right team, system, and a bit of luck.
Until then… the magic carpet keeps flying.

Bela Guttman's curse strikes Benfica AGAIN

Benfica fell to a penalty shoot-out defeat to Sevilla in the Europa League final on Wednesday night, making it eight straight defeats in European finals.

Hungarian boss Bela Guttman cursed the club after they refused to give the two-time European Cup-winning manager a new and improved contact in 1962, saying they would be destined to not win in Europe for another 100 years.

An extra-time defeat to Chelsea in 2012-13 was the most recent failure, before Jorge Jesus's side failed to find a way past a dogged Sevilla side in the Juventus Stadium.

Goalkeeper Beto then went on to make two saves in the shoot-out to hand the Andalusian side their third European trophy and ensure the drought at Benfica continues.
