Here is the latest Chelsea news and gossip that we think you guys could have missed today –
Joao Felix has sent a message to the CHELSEA fans admitting that this move to London gives him the chance to find a home and is looking forward to scoring goals for the club.
Felix, 24, spent the second half of the 2022/23 season on loan with the club and returns to Stamford Bridge on a permanent basis for a fee in the region of £44.5million.
The attacker acknowledges he is returning to the club with a sense of unfinished business. That feeling is heightened because he has not put down roots in recent seasons: ‘It’s a chance for me to find a home,’ Joao tells the club website
‘After two loans, Chelsea and Barca, I needed to stay permanently in one place. There is no better place for me to be than CHELSEA. I see a perfect place to shine.
‘It was a little bit of a lot of things that made me want to come back: the project, the club, the league, the fans, the time I spent here that I loved. I felt really good when I was here, despite the results we had. I’m really happy to be back.’
‘I’ve developed as a player in a lot of ways: the perception of the game, and the spaces the ball can arrive easily where I can make more impact,’ he explains. ‘I try to figure it out by watching some videos of me of my games.
‘I’ve kind of changed since I was last here. I’m 24 now. I’ll be 25 in November. I feel like I grew up as a player. That’s normal with age. I’m more prepared for the Premier League.
‘I feel like my best years are ahead of me. I have no doubt about that. The best years are still to come. And this year is going to be a good year, because now I am permanently at home, and I can enjoy home.’
