Chelsea’s Attacking Midfielder João Felix Set for £44M Transfer to Saudi Club Al-Nassr

João Felix is making headlines in global sports as reports emerge that the Portuguese attacking midfielder is close to sealing a £44 million move to Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr.

Felix, who joined Chelsea last summer on loan, is now seen as surplus to requirements at the London club. The potential deal is viewed as Chelsea’s effort to recoup financial losses from the underwhelming stint of the 25-year-old attacker.

If the transfer goes through, Felix will reunite with his Portugal national teammate, Cristiano Ronaldo, further strengthening Al-Nassr’s star-studded lineup in the Saudi Pro League.

While the deal has not been officially confirmed, talks are said to be in advanced stages, with both clubs reportedly keen to finalise terms.
