This season, Felix has already shown glimpses of potential for Atletico, but both he and the team have struggled to maintain consistency. In 20 club appearances this season, the Portuguese attacker has five goals and three assists. Head coach Diego Simeone has used him across the front line in a variety of different formations. Atletico started Felix in a front-two on Sunday, but they were defeated at home by league-leading Barcelona 1-0. He was substituted after 73 minutes had passed. Atletico Madrid has experienced no change in the situation either. The team led by Diego Simeone is now in fifth place in La Liga with 27 points.

Chelsea has already made a move during the January transfer window by acquiring the players David Datro Fofana and Benoit Badiashile from Molde and Monaco, respectively. Both players were designated as substitutes for Chelsea’s FA Cup third-round encounter against Manchester City; Fofana made his debut in the 4-0 defeat.
Despite setting a Premier League record for transfer prices during the summer transfer window and heavily investing in the acquisition of coach Graham Potter and his staff from Brighton and Hove Albion, Chelsea has fallen to 10th place in the division. After losing 4-0 in the FA Cup on Sunday, they were eliminated from a second domestic cup competition by Manchester City, putting them 10 points short of a Champions League qualifying spot.
