Fenerbahce coach Jose Mourinho is reportedly targeting Chelsea forward Joao Felix for a January transfer.

According to Fotomac, Mourinho has already initiated direct communication with Felix, outlining Fenerbahce’s ambitious project and attempting to persuade the Portuguese attacker to join him in Istanbul during the winter transfer window.

Felix, who joined Chelsea permanently from Atletico Madrid in August, has struggled to secure consistent game time under manager Enzo Maresca. This lack of opportunities has reportedly opened the door for potential suitors, with Mourinho keen to capitalise on the situation.

Mourinho is said to have urged Fenerbahce’s board to step up their efforts to secure Felix’s signature, provided the player expresses interest in the move. Chelsea, for their part, are believed to be open to offers for the forward.
