Will help us a lot: Cucurella praises new Chelsea signing

Cucurella on Felix

'Will help us a lot': Cucurella praises new Chelsea signing

06 September 2024 - 21:17

Chelsea defender Marc Cucurella has spoken fondly about Joao Felix following his permanent move from Atletico Madrid this summer.

  • Liverpool to sign £35m Chelsea target in January
  • Chelsea to sack Enzo Maresca in January?



  • Felix had an unsuccessful loan spell with the Blues last year, and the club decided against the possibility of signing him on a permanent deal.

    However, they decided to revive their interest this summer and signed him to compensate for Atletico Madrid's outlay on Conor Gallagher.

    Felix made an instant impact with a goal in his second homecoming and Cucurella believes the Portuguese can make a good impression.

    He said: "He is a player who can contribute a lot to us. In the Premier there are many more spaces, you can move and hopefully it will help us a lot."

    Chelsea are involved in four competitions this term. Cole Palmer has not been registered for the league phase of the Conference League.

    This is where Felix could have a huge role to play from the number 10 position. The Portuguese will be eager to prove his credentials.
