Felix is currently on-loan at AC Milan from Chelsea, though hasn't done enough to convince the Rossonero to sign him permanently.

Instead, Milan will send Felix back to London at the end of the season. Though his reputation remains intact in Portugal and Benfica would seek a season-long loan arrangement, but beginning in June so to cover the Club World Cup.

Felix's deal with Chelsea runs to 2031.
