Joao Felix Reveals His Favourite English Club Amid Chelsea Transfer Links
As Chelsea and Atletico Madrid engage in talks over a potential transfer involving Joao Felix, the Portuguese sensation has dropped a bombshell – his favourite English club is none other than Leeds United!
Felix, who previously played for Chelsea on loan during the 22/23 season, has revealed his admiration for the Yorkshire-based club in an interview with Adri Contreras, as reported by Mundo Deportivo. However, it’s unlikely that he’ll be making a move to Elland Road anytime soon, given Leeds’ current status in the Championship.
Meanwhile, Chelsea are gearing up for the new Premier League season, which kicks off with a mouth-watering clash against champions Manchester City at Stamford Bridge on Sunday. Raheem Sterling, one of the Blues’ star wingers, has spoken about the team’s new approach under manager Enzo Maresca, saying: "He’s come in and stamped his authority with the way he wants to play. Yes, some of the results haven’t been pleasing to the eye, but with the ball the right information is getting passed on. You can see the patterns that are coming through. It’s early days but you can definitely see where we are looking to go and the way we are trying to play."
In other transfer news, Chelsea are expected to part ways with several players in the coming weeks. Transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Lukaku is set to join Napoli, while Raheem Sterling could leave if Joao Felix returns. Noni Madueke is also a player to watch, with Newcastle interested in the young winger. Diego Moreira is considering a loan move to Strasbourg.
