João Félix joins Chelsea: “The perfect place to shine”

João Félix has completed his permanent transfer to English Premier League club Chelsea, joining the Blues on a 7-year contract from Atletico Madrid.

Chelsea reportedly paid a fee of €52m to sign Félix with no add-ons, while Atletico will retain a sell-on fee. Félix rejoins the club where he spent the second half of the season on-loan in the 2022-23 campaign.

Félix spent last season on-loan with Barcelona – his second loan spell since falling out with Atletico manager Diego Simeone in the autumn on 2022.
