Cristiano Ronaldo has already made his thoughts on Chelsea-bound star Joao Felix clear - while Felix's former teammate and Chelsea loanee Saul Niguez is also a fan.
Felix, 23, has been linked with a move to various Premier League teams on loan this winter with his fractured relationship with Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone failing to heal. The Portugal forward has started just seven La Liga games for Atletico this season and is looking for more regular game time elsewhere.
Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United have been the three teams most prominently linked with a move for his signature, with Atleti looking for a £9.7million loan fee to grant a six-month move. It appears Chelsea have won that race and football.london understands the Blues have a verbal agreement in place to sign the 23-year-old.
