Fabrizio Romano has reported that Joao Felix is set to travel to London for his medical with Chelsea, as his transfer appears imminent. Despite past underwhelming performances at both Chelsea and Barcelona, he is reportedly excited to return, with a long-term contract potentially lasting until June 2030 in the works. The deal reflects Chelsea's recent trend of giving long contracts to younger players, though concerns remain about the risk associated with Felix's performance history.
Romano mentioned that although Felix did not thrive during his last Chelsea loan, the club has opted to give him another shot. This raises questions regarding the club's transfer strategies, particularly for signing players who have shown potential but have been categorized as 'failed wonderkids', like Felix, who may not align well with Chelsea's current objectives under their present ownership.
