Atletico Madrid knows the permanent exit of the youngster is on the horizon. Last season, he was on loan at Chelsea, signaling an early sign of a permanent departure from the club.

And now, it is one of the club’s main objectives in the next transfer market, according to a report from Fichajes. The Portuguese forward is looking towards taking a different step in his career away from the Wanda Metropolitano stadium.

The Mattress team paid over 120 million euros for the youngster’s services to make him the most expensive signing in the club’s history. Some would say he hasn’t lived up to expectations, but the youngster showed some flashes of brilliance in his first season at the club.

However, in 2020–21 the season when the club won the La Liga title, he was relegated to the status of a second striker in favour of Luis Suarez, and things got worse between the player and his employers.

But despite his unexpected performance, it had not prevented the club from playing competitively in Europe, except for last season when they crashed out from the Champions League group stages in a disappointing fashion.

However, the persistent rumours surrounding the player indicated he could be open to leaving the club. He has spent three seasons in Spain without too many trophies to show.

The summer transfer window opens on July 1st, and we could see some big movements in the market. Felix could be one of the top names changing scenery.
