João Félix has given his consent to join Al Nassr. The Portugal forward has accepted the Saudi club’s proposal. Chelsea now work on final agreement terms with Al Nassr. Player side negotiations are also in progress.
The proposed move follows Félix’s limited playing time at Chelsea last season. Al Nassr offered a long-term deal with strong wages. Félix welcomed the proposal and viewed it as a fresh chance.
Chelsea have held internal talks on the structure of the transfer. The club assess fee, bonuses, and payment schedule. Al Nassr now send updated documents. Chelsea review those before final sign-off.
Félix’s camp support the move. The player sees more regular football in Saudi Pro League. Al Nassr plan to present a clear role to Félix. They expect the deal to wrap up within days.
Discussions include add-ons tied to appearances and goals. Chelsea aim to protect their financial interests if Félix leaves. Al Nassr insist on bonuses for performance milestones. Both camps seek an agreement satisfactory to all.
Sources close to negotiations say talks progressed in recent days. Al Nassr uploaded contract drafts. Chelsea responded with counterproposals. Félix confirmed his agreement on personal terms. Only club-to-club formalities remain.
The move would represent a shift in Félix’s career path. Previously, he played in Portugal, Spain, and England. A transfer to Saudi Arabia would mark his first move to the Middle East. It aligns with Al Nassr’s ambition to challenge strong rivals.
Chelsea’s hierarchy are set to decide within a week. Al Nassr expect response by midweek. Félix will then schedule a medical and travel to Riyadh. The transfer window timing supports a swift conclusion.
Félix’s acceptance boosts confidence that Chelsea will agree to sell. They assess squad needs before granting final approval. Manager Mauricio Pochettino will await transfer outcome for planning next season.
Al Nassr see Félix as a marquee signing. The club already employ other high-profile players. Félix would join a squad built to compete in AFC Champions League. His arrival could raise the team’s goal threat significantly.
Both clubs aim to release official statements once signatures are in place. Félix could be unveiled wearing the club’s No.10 shirt. Fans in Saudi and Portugal await full confirmation.
