Enrique Cerezo, the president of the Spanish club, announced that Joao Felix is returning to Atletico Madrid after Chelsea decided not to sign the Portugal winger on a permanent basis following his loan agreement.
Felix, 23, joined Chelsea on loan in January for the balance of the 2022–23 season. He made 20 appearances for the Blues and scored four goals.
After a challenging season in which they placed a pitiful 12th in the Premier League, Chelsea announced on Monday that Mauricio Pochettino had been named as their new head coach.
Additionally, Cerezo reportedly told Felix: "The truth is that I can't tell you the plan with Joao," according to Marca.It's the story from yesterday that the new Chelsea coach doesn't want him.
In 2019, Atletico paid £113 million to Benfica to acquire Felix, who has a deal with them through 2027.
He scored 34 goals in 131 games for Diego Simeone's team, helping them win the LaLiga championship in 2020–21.The firing of a caretaker manager by Tottenham Hotspur is an example of how disastrous they could be at times.
Leeds United was awful overall, as seen by their literal relegation.
But no club could match the Stamford Bridge crisis' extreme briefness.
Here's why Chelsea Football Club is this season's crisis club, according to 90 Minutes.
The 2022–23 season felt like the end of the world for Chelsea, with most other clubs finding it difficult to bounce back. Chelsea was all over the place on the field after the tumult and wild summer of spending that followed Todd Boehly's takeover in May. They somehow managed to shock us each week with performances that only kept getting worse under three different managers, Thomas Tuchel, Graham Potter, and then Frank Lampard.
With 44 points, they had the worst season-ending point total since 1987-88 (42). They ended the season astonishingly 30 points worse adrift than 2021-22. Their 12th-place finish in the Premier League is their worst since 1993–1994
