The transfer window in England closed last Monday, the 3rd, but Italy’s window extended until Tuesday, the 4th, making the move possible. With no place in Chelsea’s main squad, the club’s management decided to loan the player to Milan.
Interestingly, the signing was not first announced by the Italian club but rather by Serie A, which published the transfer on its official website before Milan made an official statement.
This marks João Félix’s fourth team change since January 2023. Once considered a Portuguese football gem and the natural successor to Cristiano Ronaldo in the national team, the 25-year-old was signed by Atlético Madrid from Benfica for €126 million on a seven-year contract.
However, he spent only three full seasons in Spain before embarking on a journey across Europe. In early 2023, he was loaned to Chelsea for six months. Failing to secure a permanent spot, he was loaned again, this time to Barcelona in June of the same year, where he spent a full season.
In August 2024, he returned to Chelsea in a permanent transfer worth €56 million, signing a new seven-year contract. Yet, just six months later, he is on the move again, now joining Milan on loan until the end of the season. ToSport, your reliable destination for match outcomes.
