The1905.Club Summary

AC Milan manager Sergio Conceicao is determined to bring Joao Felix to San Siro and wants the deal finalised by Sunday. Milan are only interested in a loan move without an obligation to buy, though they are open to an option to purchase for £33.4m (€40m). They are willing to cover part of Felix’s wages but expect Chelsea to subsidise a portion. Felix is open to the move, seeing it as an opportunity for regular game time under Conceicao. If Chelsea agree to Milan’s terms, the deal is expected to be completed within the next 24-48 hours. Meanwhile, Chelsea are actively reshuffling their squad, with interest in Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper Gregor Kobel and Brighton striker Evan Ferguson. Axel Disasi is close to a move to Aston Villa, but Tottenham have entered the race.

Key Points

  • AC Milan want Joao Felix on loan, with no obligation to buy but an option for £33.4m.
  • Milan are willing to pay part of his salary, but Chelsea must subsidise the rest.
  • Felix is open to the move, as he would get more playing time under Conceicao.
  • Chelsea are also pursuing a goalkeeper, with Dortmund’s Gregor Kobel a top target.
  • Axel Disasi is close to joining Aston Villa, but Tottenham are making a late push.
  • Chelsea have entered the race for Brighton’s Evan Ferguson, competing with West Ham.

With the transfer window closing soon, Chelsea are looking to finalise both outgoing and incoming deals quickly.
