Felix fails to make mark at Milan, Chelsea return on the horizon
Joao Felix's disappointing spell at AC Milan is expected to come to an end this summer, with the Chelsea forward set to return to his parent club after a challenging loan period.
Having arrived in February 2025, Felix has struggled for consistent playing time, with his potential often overshadowed by Milan's broader struggles under coach Sergio Conceicao.
The 25-year-old was brought in to provide a spark for the Rossoneri, but has found himself sidelined in a season marked by poor results. Milan sit ninth in Serie A, a far cry from their European ambitions, and the pressure on Conceicao has only mounted.
Despite Felix's arrival as a promising talent, the team's overall performance, including a recent 1-0 defeat to Atalanta, has undermined any potential impact he could have had.
His €50 million move from Atletico Madrid last summer has yet to yield the expected results, with this loan move to Milan now seen as another setback in his turbulent career. He will return to Chelsea in the summer, though his future at Stamford Bridge remains uncertain given his recent lack of form.
With Conceicao's own position increasingly under threat due to the club's poor form, it's clear that Milan will undergo significant changes this summer.
