According to Daily Mail, Joao Felix wants to leave Chelsea in the summer for a Premier League club playing Champions League football next season.

The forward has scored three goals in 17 appearances since joining Chelsea on loan from Atletico Madrid in January.

Chelsea won’t play Champions League football next season and Felix is now reportedly eyeing moves to clubs like Arsenal, Manchester City, Newcastle United, Manchester United and Liverpool, who are fifth by just one point.

It is expected that Felix will start pre-season training at Atletico as finding his next club is likely to be a lengthy process.  

Mauricio Pochettino, who is expected to be appointed as the new Chelsea manager, is believed to be in favour of keeping the versatile Portuguese forward at the club.
