AC Milan make early decision on Joao Felix's future following January loan move from Chelsea as Serie A giants decide whether to seal €45m permanent transfer

<p>Joao Felix made an instant impact after signing for AC Milan on loan from Chelsea in the January transfer window, scoring a wonderful goal after coming off the bench against Roma in the quarter-finals of Coppa Italia. It was Felix's debut for Milan, which caused <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/player-of-magic-zlatan-ibrahimovic-opens-door-to-ac-milan-signing-joao-felix-permanent-transfer-from-chelsea/blt929cd958811c6a57#cscd8c9674af914e6b" target="_blank">excitement among fans as well as Zlatan Ibrahimovic, the club's senior advisor</a>.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>However, a new report from <a href="https://www.calciomercato.com/news/milan-decisione-presa-su-joao-felix-30700" target="_blank">Calciomercato</a> has revealed that the Rossoneri are in two minds regarding the permanent transfer of Felix. Since his debut, the Portuguese forward has appeared in eight matches but has yet to score, with his only contribution being a single assist in last week’s 3-2 victory over Lecce.</p><p>Milan are skeptical about signing Felix permanently, with the Serie A outfit deciding against entering any negotiations with Chelsea. However, if things change between now and the end of the season, they could buy Felix for €45 million. Another option would be to extend his loan for another year with an obligation to buy him for around €30-35m in 2026.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Securing a permanent transfer for Felix would require massive financial investment. Milan may need to sell some key players in order to facilitate a move for the 25-year-old, with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/joao-felix-ac-milan-stay-serie-a-barcelona-target-rafael-leao-fund-bid-chelsea/blt63003aa4c108e28e#csc4d489de1472b6d7" target="_blank">Rafael Leao heavily rumoured to leave the club at the end of the season</a>.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Felix will be expected to feature in Milan next's game, which is a crucial Serie A encounter against Como on Saturday, March 15. Sergio Conceicao's side are having a subpar domestic season as they currently occupy ninth place in the league and are in real danger of missing out on a Champions League spot for the 2025-26 season.</p>
