Loaned last season to FC Barcelona, João Félix (24 years old) did not really convince. The Portuguese, who had hoped for a time to return to Catalonia, made his return with Atlético de Madrid. But the Colchoneros were actively looking for a new exit for him. This one ended up opening in England.
Indeed, Chelsea, who already have a bunch of attacking players, have reached an agreement with the player and the Madrid team for a transfer of £46.3 million, or around €54.3 million. Skysports we learned this Tuesday that the former Benfica player has already passed his medical. The final details are being finalized before the official announcement.
