Joao Felix is expected to complete his medical on Monday before finalising a permanent move to Al Nassr, bringing an end to his time at Chelsea.
All paperwork between the clubs has been signed, with only routine checks and a formal contract signature standing between the Portuguese forward and his new adventure in Saudi Arabia.
The 25-year-old is set to sign a two-year deal that will keep him at the Riyadh-based club until June 2027. Felix will link up with compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo, forming what Al Nassr hope will be one of the most exciting attacking partnerships in the Saudi Pro League.
Al Nassr have acted swiftly to hijack Benfica’s attempt to re-sign him, submitting a full transfer proposal to Chelsea and a contract offer to the player. Talks progressed rapidly over the weekend, with the agreement now in its final stages pending medical clearance.
With all key elements of the deal nearly in place, Felix is poised to begin the next chapter of his career in Saudi Arabia. His imminent arrival adds further firepower to an already star-studded Al Nassr squad aiming to compete on multiple fronts next season.
