Felix returned to Chelsea on a permanent deal from Atletico Madrid in the summer of 2024. The 25-year-old, who can operate as an attacking midfielder or a forward, had a loan spell at the Blues from the Spanish giants in 2023 and failed to make a massive impact at Stamford Bridge.

The Portugal international forward has not fared much better this time around either. Felix has scored seven goals and given two assists in 19 matches in all competitions for Chelsea so far this season. Enzo Maresca’s side, linked with Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho, are aiming to finish in the top four of the Premier League table this campaign.
