Chelsea 'agree' midfielder transfer and 'here we go' given to exit deal

Chelsea are said to have agreed a double deal, with one player set to depart and another set to arrive. The Blues are set for an ultra-busy deadline day, not only expecting incomings and outgoings, but they also face London rivals West Ham on Monday night.

Enzo Maresca is going to have to trust the club’s recruitment staff with his wishes for his squad, given he will have to concentrate on matters on the pitch from 8pm, and he will likely be busy with match-related duties right up until the deadline.

For now, Chelsea are still concentrating on getting deals done before the window slams shut, and one of those involves summer signing Joao Felix, who is on his way out of the club. Felix joined for more than £40million from Atletico Madrid but he has not convinced Maresca that he is of consistent starter quality.

Felix is set to join AC Milan on loan, with the update following reports that his agent, Jorge Mendes, was trying to convince him to join the Italian giants. Milan have lost striker Alvaro Morata to Galatasaray, while they are also expected to offload Noah Okafor before the window closes.

Fabrizio Romano has tweeted: “João Félix to AC Milan, here we go! Official bid accepted by Chelsea for straight loan with no buy option. Salary covered by AC Milan and package in excess of £5m with loan fee. João now set for AC Milan medical after his green light to the move last night.”

Felix remains under a long term contract at Stamford Bridge. Meanwhile, the Blues are set to welcome a new signing in the form of youngster Mathis Amougou. who is set to join from Saint-Etienne. The 19-year-old is set to pen terms in a long-term deal for a fee of £10million. He is a France under-18s international. The youngster has eight senior appearances for Saint-Etienne so far.
