After a few days of ‘beating around the bush’, finally It seems that Joao Felix will head to London to join Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea. The Portuguese will not have to wait until the last day of the transfer window this summer, as happened last year with Barça, and will sign for the ‘blue’ team. It will be in the form of a transfer, as has been planned in recent days.
Fabrizio Romano has reported that Talks between Atlético and Chelsea have reached a successful conclusion and that Joao, who has trained with Atlético this preseason (he even scored a goal in a friendly) will be a new player (one more of the more than 40 that Maresca already has) for the British team. He will sign until 2030.
TEMA DE ‘FAIR PLAY’
The transfer fee will be around 42 million euros, the same amount that the club from Madrid will pay Chelsea for the signing of Connor Gallagher, in a financial balance to regulate the ‘fair play’ that has become quite common in recent times.
The English winger will travel to Madrid in the next few hours (he was already in the Spanish capital to sign a few weeks ago but everything collapsed). Simeone wants to sign the British striker as soon as possible.
