Chelsea have received a cautious message regarding Joao Felix as the Portugal star crashed out of the World Cup to Morocoo on Saturday. The 23-year-old stood out in Fernando Santos' 6-1 victory over Switzerland in the last-16 but felt the pain along with his teammates after losing the quarter-final.
Felix didn't score in the lethal mauling earlier in the week but still showed his class with several mazy dribbles, popping up in space and recording two assists. His performance came at a timely point in the tournament too, with transfer season upon us as Felix is one of those being looked at once more.
Chelsea have been interested in bringing him to London for several years, and Arsenal were keen on him too, but nothing has come. However, with all not well at Atletico Madrid there is a chance to take advantage and secure one of European football's brightest sparks.
