Atletico Madrid fans deface Joao Felix plaque after Chelsea move: ‘Don’t come back, pig!’
Atletico Madrid fans have defaced a Joao Felix plaque after his summer transfer window move to Chelsea and have told him: ‘Don’t come back, pig!’
Felix has faced a wave of online abuse from Atletico fans after completing his £45m transfer to Chelsea – and some have now taken their anger even further.
Atletico stars who make over 100 appearances are awarded a plaque outside the club’s stadium, with Felix’s one targeted following his recent permanent exit.
Felix’s plaque was covered with litter – and an abusive message was also written in Spanish – after he ended his somewhat inconsistent five-year spell in Madrid.
