Liverpool have been given fresh Mason Mount transfer hope after Chelsea's latest plan to try and persuade Atletico Madrid to green-light Joao Felix joining the Blues permanently came to light. The Blues signed Felix on loan until the end of the season from Atletico but are hopeful of agreeing a fee with the Spanish club in the summer.
Felix made his return to the Chelsea team in the 1-1 draw against West Ham after serving a three-match ban for a straight red card picked up against Fulham on his debut. Within minutes of his return against the Hammers, Felix showcased exactly what Chelsea had been looking for and later in the half he scored his first goal for the club, guiding home an Enzo Fernandez cross.
Four days later he made his Champions League bow for Chelsea and once again he impressed, unfortunately, this time though he was unable to get on the score sheet despite having two clear-cut opportunities.
