Joao Felix recognized for 'TNT Sports' that playing alongside Neymar is a dream of his. The Portuguese winger also discussed how he fits in Atletico's playing system with Griezmann's arrival. He quoted his manager: we work well together.

Joao Felix dreams of playing alongside Neymar one day. He was honest for 'TNT Sports'. The Portuguese wonderkid says that they should try out how well they work together first, in case they are not compatible, but he strongly believes that they would form a deadly attack together. 

"If I would like to play alongside Neymar? Of course I would, without any doubt. I think we would make a deadly duo. But you never know, maybe we don't work that well together on the pitch, but I think we would make a great partnership together". Currently, he shares a team with French star Antoine Griezmann.

"I make a good team with everyone. I can play alongside Griezmann. Simeone already said we are compatible together and I believe it's just a matter of time we both start in the same game together" he said. 

The main reason why they haven't start together before is that the Frenchman is not in his best form yet. He is not in his best moment as he is readapting to Atletico, and at the moment he is the one being left out of the starting line-ups by Simeone.
