Gossip: João Félix dreaming of Barcelona return

João Félix is reportedly considering a departure from Saudi Arabian side Al Nassr with Barcelona identified as his dream European destination. Agent Jorge Mendes has reportedly scheduled a meeting with Al Nassr officials to discuss turning down an optional contract year, setting up a permanent European return once the Portuguese international's deal concludes in 2027.

Félix, who previously spent the 2023-24 season on loan at Barcelona, was named Saudi League Player of the Season during the 2025-26 campaign. Despite the forward's interest, doubt remains over whether Barcelona will pursue the transfer due to existing depth in their attack, while Juventus has also been cited as a potential alternative destination.
