Reports have stated that it will not be cheap for Chelsea to sign Joao Felix this summer.

According to the Chronicle Live, a loan fee for the Portugal international will cost any side who want to bring him in a fee of £11m.

It was reported as soon as last season came to an end that the club would not be extending Felix’s time at the club beyond the agreed loan spell.

This is despite the Portugal international being the top scorer at the club in the Premier League in the time period since he joined.

Despite that, he was certainly an infuriating and inconsistent player during his half season at Stamford Bridge, although base talent was clear to see.

Since returning to Atletico Madrid, Felix’s prospects have not seemed to take any positive turns.

He has been spotted training with the outcasts at the La Liga side, and certainly not looking happy at the prospect of not being a crucial player at the club.

Reports stated that Mauricio Pochettino was given the option of whether he wanted to bring the 23-year-old in again, whether it be on a temporary or permanent basis.

However, he decided that he preferred the future with new signing Christopher Nkunku in the role. Although, a plethora of recent exits could see the club revisit their interest.

Kai Havertz recently completed his move to Arsenal, where he yesterday made his first appearance in pre-season.

With Mason Mount already moving on too, the club could look to find another option to feature in those creative roles.

Given the fact Felix already has time spent at Stamford Bridge, the addition would certainly make sense.
