Atletico Madrid midfielder Llorente: Felix a great player, but it's not enough to say it

Marcos Llorente has taken a fresh dig at Atletico Madrid teammate Joao Felix.

Now on-loan at Barcelona, Felix is experiencing a new form slump.

Llorente told El Chiringuito: I have no idea, that would have to be said by his coach or his teammates.

"It is clear that Joo is a great player but it must be shown, it is not enough to say it."

Llorente was also asked about the atmosphere inside the Atletico dressing room.

He said: At Atltico we have always been a team. What happens is that when the year is going better everything is more positive and vice versa. The team has always been characterised by having a good atmosphere and making plans together."
