They said he would be the center of the project, Pochettino's low blow to Joao Felix

Mauricio Pochettino arrives at Stamford Bridge with the mission of lifting Chelsea's fallen level in recent seasons. To do so, the Argentine coach has a lot of work to do, starting with the cleaning of the squad and the high salaries of some elements in the team.

In view of this situation, the future of the players on loan in the team is already being defined, if they have any option to continue or if they can continue later. For this reason, it is important that Pochettino communicates his intentions with each of them. And now, the future of one of the players who seemed to be the center of the project is known, but it was not that way.

Joao Felix arrived on loan from Atletico Madrid with the mission to recover his level and end up being bought by the English team for the following season. However, his performance has been far from the expected and the player would not have the opportunity to be rescued, by Mauricio Pochettino's own decision for the next transfer market.

Although his performance has not been the worst either, but considering that the player has not yet managed to establish himself in the expected way and that Chelsea needs players with greater impact, the departure of the player is a reality. According to Fabrizio Romano, Pochettino has already assured that he does not want to count on the Portuguese.

What will happen with Joao Felix?

The player would return to Atletico Madrid where Diego Simeone would make the decision regarding the player's future for next season. At Chelsea, Felix played 14 games and scored a total of 4 goals.
