AC Milan signs Joao Felix on loan from Chelsea
AC Milan has signed Portuguese forward Joao Felix from Chelsea on loan for the rest of the season, the two clubs said on Tuesday.
Felix joined Chelsea from Atletico Madrid in August on a seven-year deal for a reported fee of 46 million pounds ($57.16 million), but the 25-year-old has struggled for game time in his second spell with the Premier League club.
Since his arrival at Chelsea, Felix has started just three league games despite scoring on his club debut against Wolverhampton Wanderers — his only league goal this season.
At Milan, Felix will work with Portuguese coach Sergio Conceicao.
Milan, which drew 1-1 with Inter Milan in Sunday’s derby, is eighth in the Serie A standings and takes on AS Roma in the quarterfinal of the Coppa Italia on Wednesday.
