Joao Felix has revealed two reasons why he left Atletico Madrid for Chelsea after the club made his £9million loan move official on Wednesday. The Portuguese forward will play at Stamford Bridge until the end of the season after extending his Atleti contract until 2027.

Speaking for the first time after completing his January switch, Felix explained that he agreed to swap Madrid for west London because Chelsea are one of the world’s best clubs.

And he also shared his excitement to grace the Stamford Bridge turf after previously visiting the famous stadium with Atleti.

He said: “Chelsea is one of the great teams in the world, and I hope to help the team reach their objectives. So I am very, very happy to be here and very excited to play at Stamford Bridge.”
