Chelsea CONFIRM the loan signing of Joao Felix from Atletico Madrid for a £11m fee... as the Portugal forward signs a half-season deal at Stamford Bridge amid Blues' injury woes

Chelsea have confirmed the half-season loan signing of Atletico Madrid star Joao Felix.

Graham Potter's side won the race to sign the Portugal international - who was seen leaving the Atletico training ground on Tuesday before flying to London with his influencer girlfriend - and the Blues will pay a £11million loan fee for the player.

Chelsea have been struck by an injury crisis in recent weeks and acted quickly to get Felix's deal over the line amid interest from Premier League rivals Man United and Arsenal.
