Not even a minute and a half had passed before Leicester-Chelsea when Joao Félix received a great squad and had to be treated.

In minute 23, the former Atleti player received only before the goalkeeper but shot at the post.

In minute 33 he scored what was to be 0-2, but the VAR annulled it for offside.

In minute 38 he messed up when the ball came out, the ball was stolen from him near his area and Leicester scored 1-1.

At halftime,

Graham Potter

decided to leave the Portuguese on the bench.

His team ended up winning 1-3.

The days go by and Joao Félix's statistics in the Premier continue to grow fat in calamities, yesterday with the expelled from the BBC

Gary Lineker,

and a Leicester follower, as a witness in the stands.

Last Monday, at a press conference prior to the Champions League match against Dortmund, the Portuguese was delighted to have gotten out of Simeone

's clutches

: "Chelsea is a team that likes to attack, they have the ball, they dominate the game So that's the game I like to play. I feel very free playing here. I love it."

It is not that there is much difference either, Atlético's possession is around 50%, Chelsea's 55%.

The consequence of his happiness is so far

only one goal in eight games.

Not a single assist.

He is also not among the players on the team that give the most passes or receive the most passes.

With him on the field, the team has only known victory in three games, and the ownership that was won 24 hours after landing at Stamford Bridge, is beginning to be questioned.

Two weeks ago, against Leeds, they took him off the field in 1968, on Tuesday against Dortmund in 1967. Today he did not return to the field after the break.

Although it was speculated that he could be injured because of the kick he received after a minute and a half of the game, Potter explained at a press conference that the Portuguese had too much: "Tactically I wanted to use an extra midfielder (...) I felt we needed someone that he could win the ball, a different profile and I thought Conor was fantastic".

Chelsea invested this winter market

eleven million

euros for the transfer of Joao Félix.

Then the team was tenth, and there it continues, eleven points behind the Champions League.

In his first game, against Fulham at Craven Cottage, he saw red on 58 minutes, the second of his career.

The game was 1-1 and his loss ended up costing him defeat.

Of the three games that Chelsea played during his sanction, they did not lose any.

Even so,

Todd Boehly

would be negotiating his purchase with Atleti to build his new project from the Portuguese, who is now 23 years old.

He needs one hundred million euros first, which he intends to raise with the departure of players like Mason Mount, Koulibaly or Aubameyang.
