João Félix has struggled for playing time since joining Chelsea last summer, and the Portuguese forward could change clubs again this winter.
Details: According to Fabrizio Romano, four clubs are currently interested in signing Félix, with Aston Villa showing the most concrete intent.
In recent days, representatives of the Birmingham club have been in contact with Chelsea and Félix’s agent Jorge Mendes to work out the best transfer formula.
Aston Villa head coach Unai Emery has made it clear to the club’s management that if the opportunity to sign Félix arises, it should not be missed. Félix himself is open to the move.
This season, Félix has made just 12 Premier League appearances, scoring 1 goal and providing 1 assist. In the Europa Conference League, he has scored 4 goals in 5 matches.
Last summer, Chelsea paid Atlético Madrid €52 million for Félix.
Reminder: Yesterday, Juventus secured the loan of Chelsea defender Renato Veiga.
