Joao Felix leaves Chelsea to join Saudi Premier League side Al-Saif Al-Riyadh

Chelsea can confirm that Portugal international João Félix has completed a permanent transfer to Saudi Arabian Pro League side Al-Nassr, ending his time at Stamford Bridge.

Felix joined Chelsea from Atletico Madrid in the summer of 2024, making 20 appearances and scoring seven goals. His refined technique and agile positioning added variety and threat to the team's forward line.

In the second half of the 2024-25 season, Felix was loaned to Serie A powerhouse AC Milan to continue gaining experience in Italy. Now, the 25-year-old striker will embark on a new journey, meeting Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo in Riyadh to jointly compete for the Saudi Super League and various honors.

According to various media reports, the total transfer fee could be as high as £43.7 million, including a base transfer fee of £26.2 million and add-ons of up to £17.5 million. However, the exact amount has not yet been officially disclosed by the two clubs.

Al-Qahri, currently coached by renowned Portuguese coach Jorge Jesus, boasts a squad packed with top international players, making it a formidable force. Felix's arrival will undoubtedly inject even more creativity and attacking firepower into the team.

With the completion of this deal, Felix will embark on a new challenge, and the moments he left at Stamford Bridge will become part of the memories of Chelsea fans.
