JOAO FELIX broke down in tears after finally completing his \u201cdream\u201d transfer to Barcelona.<\/p>\n
The Catalans swooped to snap up the Portuguese forward, 23, and Joao Cancelo from Manchester City on deadline day.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Felix has endured a miserable few months after he was shipped out to Chelsea on loan back in January from Atletico Madrid.<\/p>\n
Following a red card on his debut, he only managed to score four times for the Blues before they opted against signing him permanently.<\/p>\n
Felix returned to his parent club but remained out of manager Diego Simeone's plans at Atletico.<\/p>\n
As his future remained up in the air, the ace publicly declared his desire to join Barcelona back in July.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cI'd love to play for Barcelona. Barca has always been my first choice and I\u2019d love to join them.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was always my dream since I was a kid. If it happens, it will be a dream come true for me.\u201d<\/p>\n
And now, finally, that dream has become a reality – but it seems to have proven to be a little too much.<\/p>\n
After sealing his loan move to Barcelona, he took part in an official presentation over the weekend as the club unveiled their new boys.<\/p>\n
