Joao Felix Points the Way to Chelsea Escape Route

The club that João Félix desperately wants to join doesn’t appear to be so keen on the move.

João Félix delivered one of the more blatant appeals, explaining in detail precisely why Benfica should whisk him away from Chelsea this summer.

 Less than a year earlier, Félix had just completed a permanent move around £45 million ($61.3 million) to return to Stamford Bridge. “I feel very happy to be back at Chelsea,” he grinned after marking his second debut with a goal, “this really does feel like my home actually.”

The honeymoon period lasted barely six months as Félix was swiftly shipped out to AC Milan on loan for the second half of the 2024–25 campaign.
