 Felix leave Benfica and join the Spanish capital club in a major 125 million euro transfer. With him, he participated in 131 games, recording 34 goals and 18 assists, and helped Spain win the Spanish League in 2021. In the most recent World Cup in Qatar, Felix (28 international games) assisted on two goals and scored one himself for his nation against Ghana (3-2).

The Portuguese striker Joao Felix has signed a deal with English club Chelsea that runs through the conclusion of the current campaign. Felix is currently on loan from Atletico Madrid. Although the London club withheld the contract's dollar figure, English media reported that Chelsea paid 11 million euros to borrow the player.

"Chelsea is one of the greatest teams in the world and I hope to help them achieve their goals," Felix told the west London club's website. "I'm excited to play at Stamford Bridge." In turn, Atletico Madrid indicated that "the Portuguese striker, who extended his contract for an additional year with our club, will take on a new professional challenge in the Premier League," and that he had reached "an agreement with Chelsea to loan Joao Felix until the end of the current season."

Felix had moved to the Spanish capital club in 2019 in a huge deal amounting to 125 million euros, coming from Benfica. He played 131 matches with him, scoring 34 goals and 18 assists, and contributed to winning the Spanish League title in the 2021 season. Felix (28 international matches) scored a goal for his country in the last Qatar World Cup, against Ghana (3-2) and played two assists.
