The report pointed out that Felix does not want at all to continue with the Spanish club, and he and his delegation wants to terminate his contract with the capital club.
Felix had joined Atletico Madrid for €120m from Benfica in 2018, but has not adapted under coach Diego Simeone at the Blancos.
His departure will by far not be easy as it is the most expensive deal in Atletico Madrid’s history, as his club will want money to approve his departure.
What did Joao Felix do with Atletico Madrid?
Felix made 21 appearances for Chelsea last season, including 16 in the Premier League, but he has failed to make a big mark.
He only scored 4 goals, which made the London club not ask the Spanish capital club to extend his loan period for at least an additional season.
