SourceFinally, Chelsea has reached a deal with ATM on the signing of Joao Felix on a six years contract with a 12 months optional addition. I think this is no bad signing, at this time Chelsea really need a striker with a goal scoring capacity. I am suspecting that there loss to Manchester City yesterday must have fast tracked this deal. But the question now is that, does this cancels Chelsea's further interest on Victor Osimhen of Napoli whose future has been that of contention between Chelsea and PSG.
But doesn't this make Chelsea's squad even more crowded? Previously, the information said that there were a total of 43 players now with Joao Felix, that number has increased to 44 players. It's crazy what Chelsea are doing.
But since coming to Chelsea on loan two seasons ago, Joao Felix has finally been able to enjoy his career in peace without any problems like what happened at Atletico. It's a shame if there are players who no longer have a home and have to go anywhere else to be able to play football and that's what Joao Felix felt before joining Chelsea.
Although Chelsea's current situation has not improved, at least here Joao Felix can be appreciated and if he stays in Spain, he will still get ridicule that will destroy his mentality. The contract offered by Chelsea is also always long-term and I don't know what strategy they are emphasizing by always taking more than 3 years.
For Osimhen, this is still an endless discussion and I am waiting for developments to be more certain than endless speculation.
