Joao Felix's Transition to Chelsea

Chelsea have successfully reached an agreement with Atlético Madrid for the permanent signing of forward Joao Felix. The 24-year-old has agreed personal terms on a six-year contract with the option for an additional 12 months.

A New Era for Chelsea

The Athletic reported last week that the club had opened talks with their counterparts regarding a deal to sign Joao Felix. After a loan spell at Chelsea during the 2022-23 season, where he scored four goals in 20 appearances, Felix returns to the Premier League, ready to make an impact.

  • Previously loaned to Barcelona, he registered 10 goals and six assists over 44 games last season.
  • Felix extended his Atlético contract, which now runs until June 2029.
  • Joined Atlético from Benfica in the summer of 2019 for €126 million and scored 34 goals in 131 appearances.
  • He has been capped 41 times by Portugal and represented his country in international competitions.

Earlier on Monday, Joao Felix was named in the Atlético travelling squad for their opening La Liga game at Villarreal. With this signing, Chelsea's upcoming matches look promising as they seek to recover from a recent 2-0 loss to champions.
