Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly is reportedly keen to make Joao Felix's loan move from Atletico Madrid permanent in the summer, which is a huge boost for the Spanish club. It is believed that Diego Simeone does not view Felix as part of his plans for next season and the club is looking to offload him. Relevo reports that Boehly may look to send some players to Atletico as part of a swap deal to reduce their £70.5m asking price.
Chelsea spent £16m to bring Felix to Stamford Bridge in January on loan for the remainder of the season, and he has shown glimpses of promise throughout his time in the Premier League. Felix has started Chelsea’s last two games on the bench and was brought on as a second-half substitute in their recent losses to Brighton and Real Madrid.
Atletico president Enrique Cerezo said: ‘We’ll have to wait and see. Chelsea is a big team that can count on him. If he comes [back], he will be welcome.’ Newcastle United and Manchester United are other potential destinations for the 23-year-old forward, who has scored two goals in 15 appearances for Chelsea.
