Joao Felix joining Chelsea might see two attackers depart the Premier League club this week.

The Blues have almost completed a deal with Atletico Madrid for Felix.

According to football transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano, the Portugal forward is set to be unveiled later on Wednesday.

Following Felix’s signing, Chelsea will focus on securing documentation for Armando Broja’s loan contract with Ipswich.

The negotiations to sell Romelu Lukaku will also continue.

Romano wrote on X: “Chelsea are prepared to announce João Félix as new signing today with docs already sealed.

“Right after, #CFC will sign also documents for Armando Broja to Ipswich Town.

“Next step this week, Romelu Lukaku to Napoli as all parties involved feel it’s gonna happen.”
