Chelsea loanee Joao Felix is branded a ‘DISASTER’ as fuming Italian press claim ‘even his AC Milan team-mates avoid him’

Chelsea loaner Joao Felix was closed by the Italian press after the last defeat of AC Milan.

Milan suffered a 2-1 loss in Bologna on Thursday, because their hope for qualifying for the Champions League next season suffered a setback.

The side of Sergio Conukicao initially took the lead before the break through Rafael Leao, but the hosts assembled a second half of comeback with goals from Santiago Castro and then Ndoye.

It was Felix's third consecutive Serie A -start since his loan in January switched from Chelsea, and he was unable to impress.

The Portuguese attacker was eventually replaced by Christian Pulisic just after the hour and the Italian press did not stop in their assessment of his 'disaster' display.

Newspaper Corriere della Sera gave Felix a 4.5 competition assessment and added: 'The worst on the field. You can't see him, you can't hear him. Never a play, even his own players avoid him. '

In the meantime, the Italian journalist Fabio Ravezzani has posted X: 'Everything goes wrong in Milan.

“Joao Felix is ​​just as clever as he is useless, Malick Thiaw is no better than and the jerking off of Rafael Leao, unless he is injured, is foolish.”

The last defeat was left in eighth in the Serie A, eight points on drift of fourth place Juventus.

Felix came back to Chelsea from Atletico Madrid last summer for £ 46 million after a short loan tint in 2023.

The Portugal International was usually used in the Conference League and started only three Premier League matches, with seven goals in 20 performances in all competitions.

He joined Milan on loan for the rest of the season on Deadline Day of the January transfer window and scored on his debut.

Chelsea -Baas Enzo Maresca stated last month that they would not miss Felix and say: 'I don't think we are missing Joao. Joao is happy there and we are happy that Joao is happy there. We had two spits injuries on the deadline day, it's something difficult to think. Nico [Jackson] Can be back very quickly.

'Sometimes I think you have to play some games without players to realize how important they are. From the ball, his [Jackson] Pressing is always very good and on the ball he is always a threat. '
