Joao Felix was absent from the Chelsea squad that got a 2-1 victory over West Ham.

AC Milan reportedly reached an agreement with Chelsea to sign João Félix on loan on deadline day, according to Gianluca Di Marzio.

“Milan and Chelsea have a basic agreement for the loan of João Félix,” reports Di Marzio.

The Portuguese forward had been pushing for a move to Milan, encouraging Chelsea to finalise the deal with the Rossoneri.

“The Portuguese had pushed hard to go to Milan and for Chelsea to find an agreement with the Rossoneri.”

Once the transfer is completed, Félix will replace Noah Okafor, who is set to join Napoli. The deal is now awaiting final signatures before being officially confirmed.

“He will replace Okafor in the squad, who is headed to Napoli. Signatures are awaited but there is an agreement between Milan and Chelsea.”
