Chelsea plans to sell Joao Felix despite contract

Chelsea Football Club is considering selling Joao Felix, a Portuguese attacker they signed with a seven-year contract last summer. The club has struggled this season, currently fighting for a top-four finish in the Premier League. Chelsea's recent transfer activity has been surprising, with heavy investment that hasn't paid off. They started their summer transfer business early by signing Geovany Quenda from Sporting Lisbon. However, some players may be leaving the club after underperforming. Felix has been on loan at AC Milan, but his time there hasn't been successful. He scored only one goal in ten appearances, and Milan has no plans to sign him permanently. Chelsea is open to offers for Felix, and Aston Villa may be interested in bringing him in, though his high wages could be a barrier. To balance their finances after significant spending, Chelsea may need to sell some players before signing a new striker. Coach Enzo Maresca seems to want to move on from Felix and correct the mistake made in signing him.
