“Joao Felix eyes Premier League comeback after Chelsea rejects permanent transfer”

After being refused a permanent transfer by Chelsea, Joao Felix may be making an immediate return to the Premier League. The Portugal star spent the second half of last season on loan at Stamford Bridge but failed to impress new boss Mauricio Pochettino. Instead, Felix is set to return to parent club Atletico Madrid ahead of pre-season. However, Aston Villa has been offered the chance to sign Felix this summer, and they are not ruling out a potential deal despite his reported £244,000-per-week Atletico Madrid wages. Felix has also reportedly been offered to Newcastle United, but he would prefer a return to the Premier League following his brief spell last term. The ex-Benfica star scored four goals in 20 appearances for Chelsea but failed to convince Pochettino to keep him at the club.
