Joao Felix has insisted that he is happy at Atletico Madrid after a season where he's seen his starting place come under threat.

The former Benfica forward was part of Atletico's title-winning side in LaLiga Santander, though he sometimes had to make do with a role off the bench.

"I'd missed being a champion," Joao Felix said after joining up with Portugal for Euro 2020.

"I didn't do it the season before but I did [with Benfica] the season before that. It's a unique feeling that every player is looking for. I dreamt of being a champion as a kid.

"I'm still an Atletico player. I have a contract there and I'm happy. Now I'm focused on the national team because we have an important tournament to win and I can say for sure that we're contenders."
