Potential Arrival of João Felix at FC Barcelona amidst Financial Fair Play Constraints

To compensate for the probable departure of Ousmane Dembélé from Paris Saint-Germain, FC Barcelona will have to remain cautious. Coach Xavi, a big fan of the French winger, will surely call for a high-level reinforcement. But the management must come to terms with the limits imposed by the financial fair play of La Liga.

In this context, the track leading to Bernardo Silva seems very complicated. Barça may have more chances with João Felix (23 years old, 16 games and 4 goals in the Premier League with Chelsea for the 2022-2023 season). Indeed, the local media Sport understands that the Catalan club is thinking of the attacking midfielder of Atletico Madrid, but only on condition of obtaining a loan with an option to buy. Given the tensions between the Portuguese and his coach Diego Simeone, the Madrid club could end up accepting this formula if no other solution is found.

Recall that agent Jorge Mendes had offered João Felix to Barça at the start of the transfer window, without success. Then the player had himself launched a call with his foot to the Blaugrana (see here).
