This was a great deal for Chelsea as they sell their Conor Gallagher for the Portuguese forward. However it was not a swap deal between the clubs but still could be called likewise. The 7-year deal means the player will be staying at the club until June 2031.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><main class=\"relative h-full w-full flex-1 overflow-auto transition-width\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"flex h-full flex-col focus-visible:outline-0\" role=\"presentation\">\n<div class=\"flex-1 overflow-hidden\">\n<div class=\"h-full\">\n<div class=\"react-scroll-to-bottom--css-othzy-79elbk h-full\">\n<div class=\"react-scroll-to-bottom--css-othzy-1n7m0yu\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-col text-sm md:pb-9\">\n<article class=\"w-full text-token-text-primary focus-visible:outline-2 focus-visible:outline-offset-[-4px]\" dir=\"auto\" data-testid=\"conversation-turn-3\" data-scroll-anchor=\"true\">\n<h5 class=\"sr-only\">ChatGPT sai<\/h5>\n<div class=\"text-base py-[18px] px-3 md:px-4 m-auto md:px-5\">\n<div class=\"mx-auto flex flex-1 gap-4 text-base md:gap-5 lg:gap-6 md:max-w-3xl lg:max-w-[40rem] xl:max-w-[48rem]\">\n<div class=\"flex-shrink-0 flex flex-col relative items-end\">\n<div class=\"pt-0\">\n<div class=\"gizmo-bot-avatar flex h-8 w-8 items-center justify-center overflow-hidden rounded-full\">\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"relative p-1 rounded-sm flex items-center justify-center bg-token-main-surface-primary text-token-text-primary h-8 w-8\">The blues has officially secured the services of Jo\u00e3o F\u00e9lix on a permanent basis from Atl\u00e9tico Madrid. This transfer marks a pivotal moment for the Blues, as they bolster their attacking options with one of Europe\u2019s most promising talents.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"group\/conversation-turn relative flex w-full min-w-0 flex-col agent-turn\">\n<div class=\"flex-col gap-1 md:gap-3\">\n<div class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col flex-grow\">\n<div class=\"min-h-[20px] text-message flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 break-words [.text-message+&]:mt-5 overflow-x-auto whitespace-pre-wrap\" dir=\"auto\" data-message-author-role=\"assistant\" data-message-id=\"92ab8352-2f9d-4fad-aa79-b149d6cb2fb7\">\n<div class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden first:pt-[3px]\">\n<div class=\"markdown prose w-full break-words dark:prose-invert dark\">\n<p>The deal, which is not a direct swap, can still be seen as a clever piece of business for Chelsea. As part of their transfer strategy, they offloaded Conor Gallagher, allowing them to make room for the Portuguese forward. Although the transactions were independent, the exchange of players adds a layer of strategic depth to Chelsea\u2019s squad reshaping efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Jo\u00e3o F\u00e9lix has committed to a long-term future with Chelsea, signing a seven-year contract that will keep him at Stamford Bridge until June 2031. This lengthy deal underscores the club\u2019s confidence in his potential to become a key figure in their ambitions, both domestically and in European competitions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/main><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jo\u00e3o Felix has officially joined Chelsea FC on a permanent deal from Atletico Madrid. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":202,"featured_media":34845,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[410,3242,1823,3796,3472],"class_list":["post-14387","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-football","tag-atletico-madrid","tag-conor-gallagher","tag-fabrizio-romano","tag-football","tag-joao-felix"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14387","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/202"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14387"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14387\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/34845"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14387"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14387"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14387"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
