Ronaldo's Al-Nassr Leads Race for Joao Felix, Overtaking Benfica

João Félix has been the subject of transfer speculations as he looks to leave Chelsea this summer.

Al-Nassr is also leveraging Ronaldo's contract extension and the appointment of Jorge Jesus as additional incentives to persuade Felix to accept their offer.

The Portuguese forward had been heavily linked with a return to the Lisbon Eagles, but the Saudi club entered the race recently and quickly gained the upper hand, as reported by Sportal.

Chelsea paid £45 million to Atletico Madrid for Felix just a year ago, but it became clear during the winter transfer window that he wasn't in their plans, leading to a loan move to AC Milan.

The value of Al-Nassr's offer remains undisclosed, but it's expected to be accepted by the Blues.
