Barely appointed head of Chelsea, Mauricio Pochettino will have to take up the thick file of departures that the Blues will have to agree to this summer.
Will Joao Felix be a Chelsea player next year? Arrived this winter in the form of a loan from Atlético Madrid, the Portuguese, losing ground in the Spanish capital, was not necessarily more brilliant in the English. In 20 appearances in all competitions, he found the net only four times, showing himself in the image of his team: well below the expected level. However, the English press explained that the former nugget of Benfica felt good in England, and that he imagined staying when Diego Simeone no longer really counts on him on the other side of the Pyrenees.
“We have nothing planned”
His future therefore depended in part on the future coach of the Blues, and after long weeks of rumors, it is finally Mauricio Pochettino who will take his place on the bench at Stamford Bridge next year. And according to the Spanish daily Brand, the former Paris Saint-Germain will not retain him. Information confirmed by the president of the Colchoneros, Enrique Cerezo: “We have been informed that Poch does not count on João Félix for Chelsea. He will come back here, we will see… we have nothing planned”, a-t- he indicates. At 23, and while he is still under contract until 2027 with the people of Madrid, Joao Felix will undoubtedly have to find a new base this summer.
