Chelsea Transfer News: During the summer, Chelsea will spend a fortune to permanently sign Joao Felix, age 23
Chelsea Transfer News: If reports from El Larguero and Cadenaser are to be believed, Chelsea would want to retain Joao Felix on the roster permanently. The Blues are willing to pay a hefty sum to have him play for them. Chelsea doesn’t want to lose out on signing the Portuguese striker Felix, who has drawn attention from a number of teams.
The Blues have spent a lot on free agents since their new owner, Todd Boehly, took over. They are reportedly eager to spend a lot of money again this summer in order to add to their already formidable roster.
Boehly is willing to shell out serious cash to equip Graham Potter with all he needs to assemble a title-winning calibre squad. This summer they have made many high-profile acquisitions. And it’s anticipated that they’ll do the same before the next season. For the duration of the winter transfer window that just closed, Chelsea had the option to borrow Atletico Madrid’s Joao Felix on loan.

Chelsea Transfer News: What’s the matter?
The 23-year-old forward has scored once in two games for the Premier League club. Just from his few club appearances thus far, he has won over the hearts of the regulars. The club is willing to spend up to €80 million to sign him.
The Portuguese attacker just re-upped with the Madrid club but went out on loan in January. His new deal’s expiration in the summer of 2027 will significantly complicate matters.

Will Joao Felix continue at the Stamford Bridge?
Although it was Simeone who made the move to get Felix, the winger hasn’t been used to his full potential. The Portuguese national team player hasn’t been playing much for him as of late. So, he went out on loan to another club.

Whether or not Diego Simeone stays with Atletico Madrid is a key factor in Felix’s future. If the manager is able to lead the team to the Champions League, he will likely be retained. It was also possible for Felix to quit the group. If Felix can’t produce, however, he’ll go back to his original team. What happens with Joao Felix in the summer of 2023 should be quite intriguing. In any case, if Atletico Madrid is willing to part with him, Chelsea is prepared to spend top dollar to get his services.
It seems, however, that among Los Rojiblancos’ first-team players, Simeone has more support than Felix does. In an interview on the Cadena SER radio program El Larguero, journalist Miguel Martn Talavera predicted that Felix will leave this summer.
