In the past decade, the fastest-falling new star in Portugal is not Felix s turn - the golden boy who is two years older than him

How to interpret Felix's transfer to Riyadh victory? Perhaps many people thought of the gimmick of him meeting with Ronaldo at the first time. But from Felix's personal perspective, this transfer is actually a kind of disappointment. You know, Felix is only 25 years old and actually runs to West Asia at the golden age. Don’t talk about money. A really promising player will not give up on his pursuit of the upper limit of his competitive level because of money.

Look at the teams Felix has played for, they are basically all giants. He was trained by Porto, later went to Benfica and officially joined the first team, and then there was a series of well-known names - Atletico Madrid, Chelsea, Barcelona, and Milan. But what's interesting is that Felix played in these giants, playing back and forth, and never played in a giant for a long time. Usually, I was rented out as soon as I came. Then after returning, he was thrown to the next house. What does this mean? This shows that Felix has not established the ability to gain a foothold in the wealthy family for so many years. It can be said that Felix's age at 25 and his career resume have exceeded many old stars in his thirties and forties. But what's the use of this? Maldini only played for one club in his life, but this is because he is reliable and can continue to be needed by Milan. Where is Felix? He can't even be a prodigal son, at most he can count as one... Forget it, let's not talk about it. When Felix first debuted, he was regarded as the hope star of Portugal, but after so many years, he has not fulfilled his talent. Originally, everyone was worried that after Ronaldo retired, who would take the responsibility of Portugal to capture the city and the village. At present, at least Felix should not count on it.

However, Felix's trip to Saudi Arabia reminded me of another Portuguese star. Compared with Felix, this two-year-old player is the Portuguese golden boy who has fallen the fastest in the past decade. Do you still remember this name - Renato Sanchez. Yes, it is the Golden Boy of the 2016 European Cup. That year, Portugal won the championship, and Renato Sanchez, who was only 19 years old, was regarded as the next superstar of Portuguese football. At that time, his stability beyond his age seemed to be no less than Yamal in the 2024 European Cup. In the game against Poland, Sanchez also scored a wonderful shot to help Portugal equalize the score. It is this coveted potential that attracted Bayern. After the European Cup, Sanchez went to Bayern from Benfica. A new star has an opportunity to be promoted to a super giant. But going to Bayern is actually the beginning of Sanchez becoming Zhong Yong. At Allianz, Sanchez was unable to find his presence for a long time and was eventually swept out. In the next few years, Sanchez started his wandering career, and his career was no less complex than Felix. He has played for Lille, Swansea, Rome, and Paris Saint-Germain, and has also experienced the return of loan and delivery mode. Apart from his outstanding performance in Lille, it is difficult to find his presence in several other clubs. Sanchez was a rare midfield engine with a strong impact and was able to hold the ball, which was very scarce for the Portuguese team at that time. But Sanchez's sense of rhythm is not very good, and the metronome function is not fully utilized. But his bigger shortcomings are his mentality and personality. He has a bad temper and a strong sense of frustration, so he has never met our expectations. From the perspective of age, Sanchez, born in 1997, is currently in his battle year. If all goes well, he should be Portugal's midfield core now. But all this can only appear in imagination. Fortunately, Vitinia is now available in Portugal.
