Closer and closer to a final agreement on their… scam Joao Felix and Conor Gallagher it seems that the Chelsea and Atletico Madrid.
As highlighted by a number of authoritative reporters, such as Fabrizio Romano and Matteo Moreto, on Friday (16/8) significant progress was made in the negotiations between the two groups.
In fact, the Portuguese striker appears to have agreed to return to the Londoners (to whom he played on loan for the second half of the 2022-2023 season).
It is recalled that a few days ago Gallagher was going to move from Chelsea to Atlético, with Samos Omorontion to follow the opposite route. However, even though the deal seemed finished, the case of the young forward of the “Rojiblancos” finally broke down for the “blues”. Which led the English midfielder – who had already been to Madrid – to take the return plane and rejoin Chelsea’s training sessions.
However, given the desire of Atletico and Gallagher to work together and that of Chelsea to strengthen the attack, Felix’s name fell on the table again. Now, the two teams seem very close to finding each other and, if nothing goes wrong this time, to activate the -albeit differentiated- deal.
It should be noted that financial details have not yet been officially announced. However, according to Fabrizio Romano, the additional 60 million euros that the Londoners would give is not true.
Atletico and Chelsea are VERY close to reaching an agreement for Joao Felix.
En las ultimas horas se han producido contactos muy positivos entre las partes.
It would unlock the operation that would take Gallagher to Atletico.
