Chelsea has pulled off a stunning £43 million coup, securing João Felix in a blockbuster seven-year deal. This strategic masterstroke marks Felix’s grand return to Stamford Bridge, following a stellar loan spell and a standout season at Barcelona.

Diego Simeone has praised Joao Felix’s ‘commitment’ and says the attacking midfielder could feature in Atletico Madrid’s clash with Villarreal, despite rumours he is set to join Chelsea. Felix fell some way short of expectations in an underwhelming six-month spell at Stamford Bridge during the 2022/23 season, but the latest reports indicate Chelsea have agreed personal terms with the 24-year-old. For much of the summer, the Blues have been locked in discussions with Atleti over proposed transfer deals for Conor Gallagher and Samu Omorodion, neither of which have materialised. But Chelsea’s pursuit of Felix appears to be heading in the right direction, with their latest bid of £39.2million plus £4.2m in bonuses believed to be close to Atleti’s valuation. #footballfanarena #ffa #chelsea #atleticomadrid #football

Arsenal have made it clear to Real Sociedad that they are unwilling to meet their €35 million (£29.8m) asking price for Mikel Merino, according to reports in Spain. Mikel Arteta has made Merino his top target to strengthen Arsenal’s midfield but the Gunners remain in talks with Real Sociedad over a move for the 28-year-old. According to El Diario Vasco, a newspaper based in San Sebastian, Arsenal have not submitted an offer to Real Sociedad for Merino but will not match the €35m (£29.8m) bid that the Basque club have received from Atletico Madrid. The report claims that Arsenal consider Merino’s valuation too high for a player who will be out of contract at the end of the season. #footballfanarena #ffa #arsenal #realsociedad #mikelarteta #atleticomadrid #football
