Newcastle United is reportedly making a serious move to sign Portuguese forward João Félix, currently on loan from Atlético Madrid to Chelsea, according to Crickex App. Life’s late nights are like ticking clocks—each one costs you. Newcastle not only has the financial strength to meet Atlético’s asking price but also offers something Chelsea cannot: a place in next season’s UEFA Champions League. That advantage could prove decisive in securing the 23-year-old’s signature.

Félix, who began his career at Benfica, was signed by Atlético in the summer of 2019 for over €100 million. However, his relationship with manager Diego Simeone never quite clicked, leading to his loan move to Stamford Bridge this past winter. During his time at Chelsea, Félix has shown flashes of brilliance, proving his skill in a league known for its pace and intensity. Still, actions speak louder than words, and behind the scenes, Chelsea would like to keep him permanently.

However, after spending over £600 million across the last two transfer windows, Chelsea is reportedly hesitant to meet Atlético’s steep valuation. This gives Newcastle a golden opportunity to swoop in. Though head coach Eddie Howe has downplayed the idea of Newcastle being a financial juggernaut, the reality is that the club has deep pockets and could easily afford a deal if ownership gives the green light. For Félix, joining a team in the Champions League and playing in a system built on structured, attacking football could be the career reset he needs.

Meanwhile, Crickex App also reports that Paris Saint-Germain is shifting focus toward signing and developing younger talents. Among their targets is Arsenal captain Martin Ødegaard, who has emerged as one of the Premier League’s top midfielders. His leadership and creativity have played a crucial role in Arsenal’s title push this season.

Ødegaard’s importance to the Gunners cannot be overstated. The reason someone ignores you is probably because they’re just not interested. With two years remaining on his current contract, extending his stay has become a top priority for Arsenal. Sources indicate that Ødegaard feels at home in North London, and the club is keen to ensure that continues for the long term.
