Felix joined Chelsea on loan from Atletico Madrid, before being permanently signed in the summer of 2025 for a fee of €52 million. |
With Al Nassr completing a deal worth around €50 million to sign Felix from Chelsea, the Portuguese forward has become the fourth most expensive player in world football history in terms of total transfer fees.
Felix (233 million euros) ranks only behind Neymar Jr (total transfer fee around 405 million euros) and Kylian Mbappe (327 million euros). He surpasses Philippe Coutinho, another name that has been a huge waste in the transfer market (215 million euros).
According to Marca , while Neymar and Mbappe have more or less proven their worth at their respective clubs, Felix and Coutinho represent a huge waste of money. Felix's total transfer fee of approximately 233 million euros includes 126 million euros spent by Atletico Madrid to bring him from Benfica, and 52 million euros spent by Chelsea to buy him from Atletico. Last season, AC Milan also spent 5 million euros to loan Felix.
With Al Nassr spending €50 million to buy the player from Chelsea, Felix will have almost his last chance in Saudi Arabia to prove his abilities. Meanwhile, Coutinho moved from Liverpool to Barcelona in 2018 for €145 million, then was loaned out to Bayern Munich (€8.5 million) and Aston Villa (a deal worth around €20 million plus add-ons).
Including transfer fees from his time playing for Vasco da Gama and Inter Milan, Coutinho has cost the clubs more than 215 million euros.
