João Félix is no longer able to do so. Presented as a crack at the start of his career, he had been the subject of a resounding transfer in the summer of 2019 by leaving Benfica to reach Atlético Madrid against an enormous amount of 127 million euros. Among the Colchoneros, he will never have managed to impose himself, his relations with Diego Simeone being very fresh.
In recent years, he has been the subject of several unsuccessful loans in Chelsea and FC Barcelona. Bought definitively by the Blues last summer, the Portuguese will not have managed to find its superb from the Blues and has finally been loaned the last six months on the side of AC Milan. Unfortunately, this adventure ended in a new failure.
João Félix Veut Reveir Au Benfica
Not kept by the Rossoneri, he will now return to Chelsea, where he is not desired by Enzo Maresca. A departure is therefore again on the agenda and a solution could stand out: a return to Benfica, where he knew his first moments of glory. Asked about this possibility, the main interested party opened the door wide to a return to the Portuguese capital.
“I know the coach (Bruno Lage), he was important for my career. It motivates me in my decision. Of course, I really want to go back to Benfica, and that's it maybe I feel most comfortable“He said for CMTV. A headlight call to his former club, which will now have to find common ground with the Blues.
A career to revive at 25
There is no doubt that the Londoners will be open to the discussion. It remains to be seen in what form will be the transaction. A loan could be the ideal solution even if Chelsea would probably like a final sale. The player's salary could also pose some concerns even if the latter could be tempted to make efforts.
One thing is certain, at 25, the native of Viseu is a turning point in his career, and will wish to take back the thread. A homecoming could be synonymous with resurrection, he who could in particular compensate for the departure of Angel Di Maria, returned to Rosario Central. Case to follow.
To summarize
João Félix has been going through a difficult period for a few years. After not having been kept by AC Milan after its loan, it is not desired in Chelsea and should leave it again in the coming weeks. A club seems to position itself in mind to recruit it.
