Atletico Madrid ace Joao Felix: I had to shut off social media

Atletico Madrid ace Joao Felix says he's feeling well settled in Spain.

Felix discussed his move from Benfica last summer with Brazilian great Kaka in an online discussion.

The Portuguese youngster said, "As soon as you sit down with the team, the better you play. But when you are affected, the most important thing was to deal with the media. Newspapers, social networks that I used to follow, I liked when they said beautiful things and not, when they said bad things.

"At one point I stopped following them and I have not done it again. At the moment, I am fine now, moving from the Portuguese to the Spanish league."
