Chelsea are set to part ways with many of their current players. One of the players is wanted by his former club and the player himself too is interested to join them.
Chelsea are set for a busy summer transfer window. Enzo Maresca will be backed to bring in players of his choice. The Italian has won European trophy and has also helped the Blues to qualify for UCL next season.
The Blues are now set to bring in more stars. But, they will also need to focus on selling current players. This will help them to open up space and raise funds. But, most importantly it will help them to comply with PSR.
Chelsea star wanted by Portugese giants
The star in question here is Joao Felix. The Blues are ready to sell him after just one year. According to Caught Offside, Felix is wanted by Benfica this summer. The player has also given green light to join his former club once again.
Felix joined Chelsea for the second time last summer. But, he failed to get into the starting lineup under Maresca. As a result, he was sent on loan to AC Milan. Felix failed to make a mark at San Siro too due to which Milan will send him back to West London.
Benfica are keen to sign Felix on loan this summer. But, Chelsea are focused on selling the player permanently. It will be interesting to see what happens next. One thing is for sure that Felix is unlikely to have future at Stamford Bridge.
Earlier, Felix was regarded as one of the best talents in the world. But, he has not been able to live up the expectations. A move to Benfica will provide him a chance to get his career back on track. But, he will have to work hard or else his career will go downhill from here.
