AC Milan Make Loan Approach for Chelsea’s João Félix as Alternative to Marcus Rashford, Aiming to Boost Attacking Options with Portuguese International’s Arrival, Pending Chelsea’s Approval, in a Deal That Could Become Permanent in the Summer Transfer Window
Milan have made an approach to sign Chelsea attacker João Félix on loan, according to reports from Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio.
The Rossoneri are in the market for a new attacker and had initially identified Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford as their top target. However, with Rashford’s transfer valuation proving to be a stumbling block, Milan have turned their attention to Félix.
Félix, who joined Chelsea on loan from Atlético Madrid in the summer, has struggled to establish himself in Graham Potter’s starting lineup. The Portuguese international has made just six starts in the Premier League, scoring one goal and providing two assists.
Despite his limited playing time, Félix remains a highly talented player, and Milan believes he could be a valuable addition to their squad. The Italian giants are willing to take Félix on loan until the end of the season, with an option to make the deal permanent in the summer.
Milan’s interest in Félix is a clear indication that they are looking to strengthen their attacking options. The Rossoneri have been relying heavily on Olivier Giroud and Rafael Leão to provide goals, but Félix’s arrival could provide a much-needed boost to their attacking firepower.
It remains to be seen whether Chelsea will be willing to let Félix leave on loan, but Milan’s approach is a clear indication that they are serious about signing the Portuguese international. With the transfer window open until the end of the month, Milan will be hoping to conclude a deal for Félix in the coming weeks.
