Former Premier League star Frank Leboeuf has told Chelsea to sell Mason Mount and Christian Pulisic to fund a summer move for Joao Felix.
Chelsea brought in Felix on loan from Atletico Madrid in January in a deal that does not have an option to buy the Portuguese permanently.
Felix has even signed a one-year contract extension at the Spain capital club.
Leboeuf sees the midfielder as the ‘most dangerous player’ at Chelsea.
Mount is asking for more money at Stamford Bridge and talks over a contract renewal have stalled with Liverpool and Manchester United monitoring the situation.
“Joao Felix is a great player,” ex-Chelsea defender Leboeuf told ESPN
“I think he’s the most dangerous player, the most entertaining player, the most artistic player at Chelsea right now.
“Hopefully Chelsea will be able to sell a few players – maybe Pulisic and Mount – and can then get Felix on a permanent basis.”
