The Portuguese striker has failed again, this time at AC Milan… Chelsea are listening to offers.
Joao Félix is going through one of the most challenging periods of his career. After failing to establish himself at both Chelsea and Milan, his future is once again uncertain. The London club, who paid €52 million for him from Atlético de Madrid, have made it clear that they do not see him as part of their plans for the upcoming season. Milan, where he arrived as a direct request from Sérgio Conceição, will also not exercise any purchase option after a disappointing season both collectively and individually.

His last hope lies in a homecoming
The Portuguese player has only played 936 minutes in Serie A this season, with only two goals to show for it. As the season progressed, he was less used in the starting line-up, while Milan drifted away from European places. Neither in England nor Italy has he been able to rediscover the level that once made him one of European football’s greatest talents.
25 years old and on the way home?
According to ‘EstadioDeportivo’, Joao Félix’s future now points to a return to Benfica, the club where he first made a name for himself. In Lisbon, they will welcome him with open arms, not least his brother Hugo Félix, who dreams of sharing the club hatches with him. In addition, Benfica will participate in the upcoming Club World Cup, an ideal arena for Joao to show off his talent again. In a familiar environment and with confidence, Benfica could be the perfect place to reignite your career.
