From Record Transfer to Saudi Arabia
Félix’s career has been one of the most intriguing in modern football. Back in 2019, he became one of the most expensive players in history when he moved from Benfica to Atlético Madrid for a staggering €126 million. His time in Spain, however, was a mixed bag, and in 2024 he made the switch to Chelsea in a €52 million move.
