Speaking in an interview as quoted by Football. London, Chelsea boss Graham Potter is eagerly awaiting the return of on-loan forward Joao Felix, who was recently suspended following a red card in his team’s away game against Fulham.
Potter expressed his excitement and appreciation for the impact Felix has had on the team. The Atletico Madrid forward joined the Blues on loan for the rest of the season.
Felix is a player who possesses immense quality and the ability to change the game with his impressive skill set. He showed all this on his debut before he got sent off and hasn’t been seen since.
However, despite the impact Felix has made in his brief time on the pitch, Potter is aware that there is still work to be done in order to fully integrate him into the team.
Potter is confident that Felix will be able to adjust to the team’s style of play and make a positive impact on the pitch once he returns from suspension.
Here is what the English manager had to say ahead of Felix’s much-awaited return to Chelsea action as he looks to build on what was a positive 60 minutes on debut.
“It’s great and we all saw the impact he had in his 60 minutes before the red card [away to Fulham]. You can see his quality, see it every day. He is a player who can make a difference for us but we have to help him get integrated into the team, for him to understand what we’re trying to do. But the signs are very positive.”
Felix has already made a name for himself in the world of football, with many recognizing his immense talent and potential. However, he has stagnated in recent years at Atletico Madrid.
Stamford Bridge could be the place for the former Golden Boy discovers his best level yet again. Although he is here on a temporary basis, this could be a match that works for both parties involved.
The return of Joao Felix is a huge boost for Chelsea, and Graham Potter is excited to see the impact he will have on the team. With his exceptional talent and potential, let’s see if he can be the missing piece in the jigsaw that Potter is building.
